Product Description
EpoxAcast™ 650 BLACK + HT Hardener
EpoxAcast™ 650 Black is a mineral filled general purpose casting epoxy that is low cost and versatile. It features a low mixed viscosity for minimal bubble entrapment.EpoxAcast™ 650 Black is used for making hard dies for metal stamping as well as patterns and fixtures. It is also used for electrical encapsulation to extend the life cycles and enhance the performance of potted electronic devices. The high compressive strength of EpoxAcast™ 650 Black makes it ideal for making stamping dies for production pressing of metal ornaments.

TASK™ 5
TASK™ 5 is a low cost, high performance casting resin, which yields castings that are tan and virtually bubble free. This resins offers superior physical and performance properties compared to our popular Smooth-Cast™ Series of general purpose casting resins. Vacuum degassing is not necessary and it offers the convenience of a 1A:1B by volume or weight mix ratio.
TASK™ 5 has a high tensile and flexural strength, as well as high flexural modulus. This plastic was formulated for a variety of industrial applications including pattern making and making prototype models. This resins was designed for casting in thicknesses up to ½” (1.27 cm).
