Climbing Hold Manufacturing at Any Scale

Premium tooling materials for consistent climbing hold manufacturing and reliable performance

Engineered systems for master sculpting, mold making, and production casting – built for brands that need repeatable quality at scale

Your Challenge

You need climbing holds that look and feel consistent across every production batch – with durable textures, reliable demold, predictable cure behavior, and scalable processes that keep up with demand.

Our Solution

RAMPF supplies coordinated polyurethane systems, silicones, tooling boards, and optional contract manufacturing that streamline every production step. You get stable workflows, reproducible colors, fast cycle times, and materials you can trust from prototype to high‑volume manufacturing.

Your Key Benefits

High-quality surface finishes right from the master pattern
Less post-processing through optimized material compatibility
High process reliability and reproducibility
Long-lasting molds and tooling
Custom material and color development

Products and Features

High-quality climbing holds start with the right master pattern:

  • RAKU® TOOL modeling boards enable efficient hand shaping and precision CNC machining of holds and volumes.
  • Their homogeneous cell structure delivers excellent surface quality, reduces post-processing, and speeds up master pattern production.
  • Multiple densities are available to meet the requirements of both holds and large climbing volumes.

RAKU® TOOL Styling Boards (SB Series) are ideal for:

  • Hand-shaping climbing holds
  • Creative shaping and sculpting
  • CNC-machined master patterns
  • Prototypes and small production runs

RAKU® TOOL Modeling Boards (MB Series) offer:

  • Excellent dimensional stability
  • Fine surface quality
  • Precise CNC machining
  • Production of master molds and fixtures

RAKU® TOOL Working Boards (WB Series ) stand out with:

  • Higher temperature resistance
  • Low thermal expansion
  • Production of large molds and climbing volumes / volume structures

When producing large climbing volumes or complex machined structures, individual boards must be joined accurately and securely.

RAMPF offers adhesives specifically matched to RAKU® TOOL boards:

  • 1-component adhesives for simple applications
  • 2-component adhesives with standard cure times
  • Fast-curing 2-component adhesives for shorter process times

Formulated specifically for RAKU® TOOL board materials, these adhesives create minimal bond lines, reducing post-processing and helping achieve high-quality surface finishes.

The quality of a climbing hold depends on the precision of its mold. RAMPF silicone systems provide:

  • Exceptional level of detail
  • Excellent reproducibility
  • High flexibility
  • Long mold life

Condensation-cure and platinum-cure systems are available in a range of hardness levels to meet specific production requirements. Complementary release agents help extend mold life and improve overall production efficiency.

RAKU® TOOL IE-3065

This two-component paste system is used to produce support and shell molds, reducing silicone consumption while improving the dimensional stability of large molds during casting.

Climbing holds must withstand extreme mechanical loads while delivering the grip, feel, and performance climbers expect.

RAMPF polyurethane systems offer:

  • High strength and wear resistance
  • Consistent material quality
  • A range of hardness and performance grades
  • UV-stable formulations
  • Custom formulations for specific requirements
  • Recyclable systems

In addition to conventional casting applications, RAMPF also provides solutions for rotational molding, coatings, and spray processes.

Every climbing hold manufacturer has unique requirements for weight, surface texture, color, and performance.

RAMPF’s R&D team support you with:

  • Material testing
  • Custom product modifications
  • Development of tailor-made polyurethane systems
  • Color matching to samples or Pantone specifications
  • Technical support for new product development

The result: material solutions engineered specifically for your application and production requirements.
