Getting the best from it
Your engineer will confirm settings for your grade and dies.
Match your pattern wax
Pick a runner grade compatible with your pattern wax so used wax recycles cleanly.
Inject or extrude
Form runners and sprues by liquid injection, paste injection or extrusion.
Dewax clean
Low melting point and viscosity help dewaxing and clean burnout.
Reuse
Return used wax for refurbishing into runner wax.
Complete the system
Filled pattern wax
Filled with cross-linked polystyrene (XLPS) for tight dimensional control. Liquid or paste injection.
View detailsNon-filled pattern wax
Formulated to perform like filled wax, with a high surface finish and easy recycling.
View detailsAssembly wax
Sticky wax that bonds pattern assemblies securely and resists crazing and cracking.
