About PMC Sterling

Work, roll, cut, shape and fire versatile PMC Sterling™ like any ordinary clay. After firing, your design comes out of your kiln as a solid sterling silver object which can be hallmarked 925.

PMC Sterling™ is made in Japan and is available in 25-gram and 50-gram packages.

Composition: Metal powder (92.5% fine silver, 7.5% copper), water and organic binder

Color: Pickle white after firing
Shrinkage: 15–20%
Firing temperature: 1500°F (815°C)

Physical Properties (after firing):

  • Melting point: 1620°F (880°C)
  • Density after firing: 9.3 S.G.
  • Tensile strength: 190 N/ mm2
  • Bending strength: 160 N/ mm2
  • Surface hardness: 50 HV

Important: Because of the copper content in this formula, firing is a two-step process. Step two requires a firing pan and activated carbon media.

Please Note: PMC® has a strong adverse reaction to contact with aluminum. Do not use aluminum tools or allow your unfired PMC to come into contact with any aluminum object.
