Ferris File-A-Wax Style T-100 ring tubes are a trusted choice among master wax carvers for lost-wax casting work. Each tube measures 6" (152mm) in length, 1-1/8" (28.6mm) high, and 1" (25.4mm) wide, with a flat top profile and a 5/8" off-center hole. The flat top geometry makes these tubes well-suited for carving rings, cuff links, pendants, medallions, and other jewelry forms.
These carving waxes are easily sawed, carved, drilled, milled, and turned on a lathe. They burn out cleanly from investment molds, withstand rough handling, and will not soften in the hands. All formulas share an approximate melting point of 240°F. Must be burned out of investment molds. Not for use in steam de-waxers.
