SculptaCast PZ-A 401L

Product Type and Description

Precizioned SculptaCast PZ-A 401L is a versatile, technically engineered high grade green sculpture wax ideal for mass and slush casting. It can be used for painting fine detail or used for modeling and as a backup wax. PZ-A 401L offers moderate toughness with good durability and thus allows for workability with basic sculptors’ tools. PZ-A 401L is a softer product than the PZ-A 407G, which allows for improved workability when desired. This product is easily adaptable and readily blends with other sculpture waxes in our product line to obtain specific desired properties if needed. The product is based from virgin petroleum raw materials providing consistent results and is naturally clean burning with very low ash residue.

All manufactured product undergoes stringent Quality Control testing to ensure the highest level of quality.

Handling Guidelines (Melting and Conditioning)

Precizioned recommends the wax be melted at a minimum of 180-220°F (82-104°C) with constant low agitation for proper heat transfer and to produce a homogenous blend. Once the wax has completely melted, transfer the wax to the appropriate holding reservoir and condition the wax to the desired temperature and allow the wax temperature to stabilize. Allowing sufficient time for temperature stabilization ensures the most consistent product, performance and results. It is also recommended that the wax temperature not exceed 302°F (150°C) for prolonged periods as this will thermally degrade the wax components and result in changes to properties and performance.
