Green casting wax for slush casting, brushing and backup
Limerick Green Slush Casting Wax is a green casting wax in pastilles for the lost-wax process. You pour or slush the wax into a mould, or brush it in for the first layer of detail. The wax has a melting point of 76 °C, shrinks very little and picks up fine detail. Less than 0.006% ash remains after burnout, so the bronze foundry can burn out the wax pattern completely.
Key benefits
- Low shrinkage: the pattern keeps its shape during demoulding.
- Fine detail: picks up fine details from the mould.
- One wax for brushing and backup: thin enough to brush and firm enough to use as a backup wax.
- Firm: does not sag in summer, is not grainy and does not stick.
- Pastilles: easy to measure out.
- Low ash: less than 0.006% ash after burnout.
Typical applications
- ✓ Slush casting hollow wax patterns for the bronze foundry
- ✓ Brushing detail into a mould, with the same wax as backup
- ✓ Casting wax patterns for the lost-wax process
- ✓ Finishing the cast wax pattern with modelling tools
Processing
- Melt the wax and keep it at the working temperature of 70 to 76 °C.
- Slush casting: pour the wax into the open mould, let it set briefly and pour out the wax that is still liquid. A thin wax shell remains.
- Repeat until you reach the required wall thickness.
- Brushing: brush the wax into the mould at melting temperature, then build up a backup at about the same temperature by slushing.
- Finish the demoulded wax pattern with tools if needed.
Points to note
- ✓ Never heat the wax above 100 °C. This can permanently change its properties.
- ✓ Avoid skin contact with molten wax and do not inhale the fumes.
- ✓ Shelf life: at least 5 years.
