Non-filled pattern wax
Our latest unfilled formulations are designed to perform like filled wax, in liquid and paste condition, with excellent recycling advantages. Includes the SHINECAST UPW grade for mass production.
Why foundries choose it
Recycle and reconstitute every cycle
Unfilled wax dewaxes cleanly and can be recycled after every dewax, so shells crack less and wax cost falls.

Getting the best from it
Your engineer will confirm settings for your grade and dies.
Automatic tooling
Use fully automatic wax injection tooling for consistency and accuracy.
Paste or gel
Inject at super paste or gel condition, at the lowest workable wax temperature.
Cool the dies
Provide uniform die cooling between 20 and 22 °C.
Control the rooms
Keep wax and shell rooms at 20–25 °C, with trained operators.
Complete the system
