Castable Wax Resin—
Why Choose Castable Wax Resin?
With high strength and stiffness, Castable Wax Resin makes it possible to print ultrafine and thin structures.
Clean, Reliable Casting
Contains 20% wax with zero ash content and clean burnout.
Faster and Simpler Workflow
Printed parts are strong enough to handle with no post-cure required, meaning they are ready to use right away.
Smooth, Refined Surfaces
Easily remove light-touch support tips that don’t leave dimples in your parts.
High Green Strength
Ensure shape retention for thin patterns such as wire filigree.
Applications
Castable Wax Resin is ideal for lightweight, intricate jewelry or for prototypes and production.
Delicate filigree designs
Direct investment casting
Now you can create 3D printed wax-like patterns that accurately capture fine features, like raised text, delicate filigree wires and meshes, and detailed pavé, with no visible layer lines.
Custom try-ons
Thin pieces with fine details

Post-Processing
Form Wash Settings
Wash Castable parts for the shortest time necessary to remove liquid resin. Ensure that all solvent has evaporated or been removed from the parts before curing and casting.
SETTINGS
Form Cure Settings
Castable Wax Resin does not require post-curing. Allow parts to fully dry before casting. While post-curing Castable Wax parts should not affect castability, post-curing may shrink parts slightly (by less than 1%), which can cause distortion.
