Ferris File-A-Wax Carving Wax bars are the preferred choice of master jewelry carvers for lost wax casting. Available in six color-coded hardness formulas, these 1 lb bars measure 5-3/4" x 3-1/2" x 1-3/8" and are engineered to be easily sawed, carved, drilled, milled, and turned on a lathe. Each formula burns out cleanly from investment molds, withstands rough handling, and will not soften in the hands—making them ideal for rings, cuff links, pendants, medallions, and other intricate models. All formulas share an approximate melting point of 240°F.

Must be burned out of investment molds. Not for use in steam de-waxers.
