Ferris File-A-Wax Carving Waxes are used for making models to be reproduced by the lost wax casting process. These waxes have been preferred by master carvers for years. Ideal for rings, cuff links, pendants, medallions, and much more. Easily sawed, carved, drilled, milled, and turned on a lathe. Burns out cleanly from molds, will stand rough handling, and will not soften in the hands. All have an approximate melting point of 240°F.

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

  • Blue (Soft) – bends 90° at 1/8" thickness; ideal for extreme thin-wall sections
  • Purple (Medium) – some flexibility; excellent for general-purpose hand carving
  • Turquoise (Medium Hard) – excellent hand carvability and milling performance
  • Green (Hard) – cannot be flexed; designed for highly intricate carving
  • Gold (Harder) – also called Wolf Wax; optimized for carving and CNC lathe work
