Abstract
A silicone rubber layer is formed on a metal mandrel by curing an addition reaction curing type liquid silicone rubber composition so as to provide a resilience of 5-30% according to JIS K-6301, and an organic resin layer having a low surface energy is provided thereon, thereby yielding a low-hardness silicone rubber fixing roll, which ensures an appropriate nip width even under a low nip pressure and even when the silicone rubber layer is made thin.
