Properties and Applications
  • Transparent, low-shrinkage casting with tack-free surfaces.
  • Excellent flow properties due to its low viscosity.
  • Cold-hardening and demouldable at room temperature, with the option to cure at slightly elevated temperatures.
  • Highly fillable casting resin that forms pressure-resistant and impact-resistant molds or components with high strength and minimal shrinkage
Industrial and Hobby Applications
  • Ideal for creating "River Tables" and other transparent, water-clear castings.
  • Suitable for foundry patterns, die plates, reproduction patterns, and medium molds and castings.
  • Can be used as an injection system for repairs and encapsulation of decorative elements.
  • Functions as a leveling compound or injection resin for structural repairs.
