A-452
Pattern Wax

Eco-friendly Products
A-452 is a pattern wax that does not include a filler material. Therefore, the wax pattern surface is smooth and thin. Additionally, there is no mold cracking due to de-waxing because the viscosity of this wax in its liquid state is very low. This wax is suitable for the production of general investment casting products such as machine and automobile parts.
