Ferris 2283-A Green is a premium, non-filled water soluble wax formulated for creating pattern cores and internal cavities that capture fine mold detail. It can be injected or hand cast at low temperatures and later dissolved out to leave clean, hollow spaces in the finished wax pattern. Ideal for jewelers and metalsmiths who need precise hollow geometries in their casting models.
Features
- Non-filled, water soluble formulation for clean, residue-free removal
- Captures intricate detail when injected into a mold
- Suitable for both injection and gravity pour application methods
- Dissolves in plain water; faster removal achievable in a 5–10% muriatic acid solution
- Supports creation of hollow areas and complex internal geometries in wax patterns
