Hi
My vacuum pump is able to pull max "-0,85 bar". This value is ok for degassing resin and silicon rubber ?

Thanks

Oh yeah, that should draw the bubbles out. I had a hand pump vacuum bell and if I could hit "0" I was doing good...put some marshmellows in your bell jar{or what ever your using} and draw the vacuum down and see how big they get-hehehe.
