True Cast Resin

Why Choose True Cast Resin?

Castable Resin Formulated for Reliable, Precise Casting of Detailed Patterns


Designed for Consistent, High-Quality Casting

Crisp features, smooth surfaces, and superior accuracy enable highly detailed cast parts.


Reliable Printing and Forgiving Casting

Printed parts have low thermal expansion and maintain surface integrity with no wax migration or residue over time, allowing for a more forgiving casting experience.


Clean Burnout

With 0.03% ash content and low shrinkage, True Cast Resin delivers a clean burnout that integrates easily into existing investment casting workflows.


Versatile Casting Applications

Cast intricate jewelry patterns, heavy jewelry, and complex engineering components up to 5 mm thick.

Applications of True Cast Resin

True Cast Resin delivers precise, high-quality cast parts with crisp features, smooth surfaces, and clean burnout, making it ideal for a wide range of demanding casting applications.

Consider True Cast Resin for:

Medium jewelry
Medallions and figurines
Heavy jewelry
Small engineering components

Post-Processing

Form Wash (2nd Generation) Settings

Duration

5 min in IPA

Notes

Parts should be washed for 5 minutes in IPA or ethyl alcohol (concentration of 91% or higher). Immediately afterwards, dry the part thoroughly using compressed or forced air. Spray (or rinse) parts with fresh IPA or ethyl alcohol, then dry again using compressed or forced air.

Form Cure (2nd Generation) Settings

Duration

3 min

 

Temperature

Ambient

Notes

It is highly recommended to cure parts - this will significantly reduce any potential defects during casting. Cure for 10 minutes without heat in Form Cure or equivalent third-party curing machine. Cure for 3 minutes without heat in Form Cure (2nd Generation).
