Description
Ferris File-A-Wax Carving Waxes are used for making models to be reproduced by the lost wax casting process. These oval blocks — measuring 3-1/8" x 2-5/8" x 4-5/8" height — are the waxes preferred by master carvers for rings, cuff links, pendants, medallions, and much more. Easily sawed, carved, drilled, milled, and turned on a lathe, these waxes burn out cleanly from molds, stand up to rough handling, and will not soften in the hands. All formulas have an approximate melting point of 240°F.
Must be burned out of investment molds. Not for use in steam de-waxers.
Features
- Six color-coded hardness formulas to suit a wide range of carving and machining applications

- Easily sawed, carved, drilled, milled, and turned on a lathe
