Wolf Wax By Ferris™Co-designed by master modelmaker and educator, Kate Wolf and Kindt-Collins, the manufacturers of Ferris Waxes, Wolf

Wax by Ferris™ fills a void among wax carvers. With their new silver and gold colored carving wax you can create finished

wax carvings that look more like actual jewelry than conventional carving waxes, making it easier for both jewelers and

their customers to visualize the finished piece. This new carving wax melts at approximately 240° F and is available in

ring tubes of many sizes, rods, slices and 1 lb. blocks. It has medium hardness and flexibility, which allows for extremely

fine detail, piercing and carvability. In addition to silver and gold carving wax, Wolf Wax by Ferris™ has a number of other

new waxes to make modelmaking easier and more efficient. These include a specially designed build-up and repair wax

that also comes in silver and gold colors, a new touch-up wax, relief wax and Wicked Sticky™, a highly tacky positioning

wax for securing stones and other objects for accurate tracing onto carving wax or metal.

Injection WaxesKerr injection waxes are recognized throughout the world as the best quality injection waxes you can buy. Kerr

injection wax might cost more per pound than other waxes, but Kerr’s unique low specific gravity formula yields

more wax patterns per pound than other leading brands. More importantly, the finish on a Kerr injection wax

model will have a very high and smooth sheen, to produce a casting that reduces polishing and finishing labor.

Kerr’s injection wax also has a built-in mold release, eliminating the need for talc and allowing delicate wax

models to separate easily from the mold. No other injection wax on the market that we know of will produce

wax models as consistently and accurately as Kerr’s injection wax.

Accu Waxes Available in three different colors, Accu waxes are recognized as the best quality injection waxes on the market. The Accu is an excellent all purpose wax that reproduces the finest detail better than any other wax. Highly recommended for “stone in place” casting.

New Accu Carve Injection WaxDue to overwhelming requests, KerrLab introduces carvable injectionWax. Utilizing the same characteristics of the Accu flake line, ourresearch team has reformulated the chemistry to deliver excellent carvability in an injection wax. This new wax features low shrinkage,excellent flow and low ash content, yet offers minimal gumming of wax files and rotary tools like that of traditional injection waxes. It is a durable wax that will not break under stress, and does not react tobody heat from fingers while handling. Ideal for designers or any casters who find themselves often reworking wax patterns.

Golden River – High Fluidity Wax AdditiveNew from Castaldo, Golden River high fluidity wax additive improvesthe performance of most jewelry injection waxes by making themmore fluid. A handful or two added to a wax pot when it is needed isall that it takes to make standard jewelry waxes flow like water. This canmake it easier to fill those hard to fill rubber molds. Later, a handful ortwo of the standard wax can be added back to the pot, slowly return-ing the contents to its normal consistency. Golden River is not a newproduct, as it has been in use for more than fifty years in the MiddleEast, and it won’t damage your rubber molds or effect your burn out,as it burns out cleanly without leaving residue or ash. Golden River isnot a wax additive, but is actually an injection wax itself. Golden River issold in a 4.4 lb. (2 Kilo) bag.

Tip W hy Choose to Vacuum Cast?

Vacuum casting is an alternative method of casting that has certain advantages over the centrifugal method. Perhaps the biggestadvantage is cost. Since you will need a vacuum investing machine to remove air bubbles from investment anyway, why not cast with the vacuum machine too, and save the expense of buying a separate centrifugal casting machine? Vacuum casting or rather vacuum assisted casting is the favored method of large industrial casters and is the most common method used on large productioninduction casting machines. Vacuum assisted casting can produce dense, defect-free castings quickly, safely, and dependably in acompact space with some fairly basic technology. Vacuum casting works well with small casting runs too, as a single ring in a 2” x 3”flask can sit on top of a chamber caster and benefit greatly from the powerful vacuum assist. If you use a Kerr Electro-Melt, vacuumcasting becomes even easier, almost as simple as pouring milk on your cereal.

Tech

Tip Vacuum pumps require frequent oil changes with specially formulated vacuum pump oil to maintain peak

performance and to minimize damage from water contamination. Vacuum pump oil is special hydroscopic oil that absorbs the water from the air as the air is being drawn thru the pump. When it becomes saturated it can no longer do its job and water builds up in the pump causing unnecessary corrosion. Make it someone’s job to regularly change your vacuum pump oil, especially in a production shop. Oil that becomes milky white is a sure sign that it’s time for an oil change!

Steam Dewaxers

Steam dewaxers are used to safely remove injection waxes from castingflasks without the offensive fumes that occur if wax elimination is done in a burnout furnace. Steam dewaxers do not work with high plastic contentcarving waxes like Ferris or Matt Carving waxes, or any wax that has a melt-ing temperature in excess of 212° F. Steam dewaxers can remove up to 95%of the injection wax inside a casting flask, leaving a greatly reduced amountof wax that has to be burned out. Flasks that are steam dewaxed before theburnout process will have less residual carbon buildup in the mold, produc-ing a cleaner casting. The automatic one-hour timer on/off switch standardon all our steam dewaxers helps prevent element burnout, but it’s a goodidea to keep a spare heating element on hand in case someone forgets tokeep the water level full and the element burns out. Our steam dewaxersare available in three sizes and various voltages: 2-gallon in 120V only, 5-gal-lon in 120V or 240V and 10-gallon in 240V only.

Burnout FurnacesSierra Burnout Furnaces with Built-In Programmers

Sierra burnout furnaces are built with the jeweler in mind. Sierraburnout furnaces start with energy saving ceramic fiber mufflesembedded with heating elements. Fiber insulated kilns are much more efficient than conventional firebrick kilns as less heat escapesfrom the kilns, keeping your workshop cooler. Because less heatescapes, the Sierra burnout furnaces reaches burnout temperatureswith less energy consumed. And since the heating elements areembedded in the muffle, there are no exposed elements to accidentally contact and damage.

Sierra burnout furnaces come with built-in programmers, so burnoutsare automatically controlled leaving you free to do more importantthings like sleeping or actually making jewelry. The programmerincludes three built-in burnout cycles, for 5, 8, and 12 hour burnouts,and the all important delayed start feature, so you can burn out at night and be ready to cast in the morning. You can also create your own custom programs, with eight separate steps, each step having three custom parameters, temperature, time, and power totemperature, (ramping), a very important feature that eliminates temperature overshoot.

This state-of-the-art programmer also makes the Sierra burnout fur-nace an excellent choice for enameling applications.Sierra burnout furnaces come in four different chamber sizes, andare supplied with a wax elimination tray. Maximum achievableburnout temperature is 1600° F. Sierra burnout furnaces are madein the USA, are UPS shippable and have a 1-year factory warranty.

The Paragon programmable burnout controller is the most popularburnout controller we’ve ever sold. Easy to use and set up, you simplyplug your burnout furnaces directly into the controller, connect thecontroller thermocouple to your kiln chamber, set your kiln control onhigh, and let the controller manage the burnout. The paragon controlleroverrides the kiln controller and either runs a standard built-in 8-hourprogram or the custom program of your own. The Paragon burnoutcontroller has six different steps, each step being programmable fortemperature, time and power to temperature (ramping).

If the thermocouple should ever fail, the controller with shut down the oven automatically. Paragon programmers are made in the USAand come with a 1-year factory warranty.

Burnout FurnacesSatellite Burnout Furnaces

Heavy duty Satellite burnout furnaces are of conventional firebrick design with visible heating elements and simple

low maintenance parts. Satellite burnout furnaces are available in two chamber sizes, a standard 8-1/2” x 9” x 6-1/4” or

a large 12” x 12 x 8-1/2”. Each chamber size is available with either a basic high-low power infinite control or an automatic

temperature control switch. The basic control only controls the amount of power that is sent to the elements, as in

10% (low) to 100% (high) power, so careful attention to the pyrometer becomes the only method to check temperature

(If you are using a separate programmable control unit, this is the best way to go, since the separate programmer will

override whatever control is used in a furnace. The automatic control allows you to turn the dial to a precise temperature

setting, just like you do on your kitchen oven. The automatic control is worthwhile if you are not using a separate

programmer. Satellite burnout furnaces are UL certified and are made in California, USA. Truck freight only.

Replacement Parts for Satellite Burnout Furnaces

Besides fitting Satellite burnout furnaces, many of these parts will fit other brands of conventional kilns, ovens or burnout furnaces.

Platinum Casting MachinesPlatinum Vertical Casting Machine

Platinum casting requires different equipment from other preciousmetal casting due to platinum’s higher melting temperature. The vertical casting machine is used to ensure an initial rapid flow of thishard-to-keep liquid metal and the 21” long arm provides the extra forceneeded for heavier casts. The design of the vertical machine also helpsprotect the operator from the accidental release of molten platinum,since any blow out will spray the metal vertically, not horizontally intothe path of the operator.

The platinum vertical casting machine takes flasks up to 3-1/2” diame-ter by 5” tall and comes with balance weights, flask cradle and a splashshield. Crucibles are sold separately. Made in the USA. Shipping weight is 35 lbs.

Kerr Electro-MeltsKerr Electro-Melts are used primarily for melting gold and silver so it can be easily poured into ingotsor casting flasks. The maximum temperature that can be reached with an automatic electro-melt is1121° C/2050° F. Manual control electro-melts reach a maximum temperature of 1093° C/2000° F.Electro melts are also commonly used for reclaiming, alloying and refining gold and silver. Electro-Melts are not for use with Platinum or other metals that have melting temperatures above 2000° F.

Kerr Electro-Melts have been recently re-engineered to meet CE, UL and CUL certification. The only parts that are the same are the crucibles. We stock replacement parts for both the new and the old generation of Kerr Electro-Melts.

Kerr Standard Electro-Melts: Automatic or Manual ModelsThe 30 troy oz. gold capacity Kerr standard electro-melts are available in automatic or manual models.The automatic models have a programmable digital control that allows the operator to set precisemelting temperatures without having to constantly monitor the controls. The automatic model alsohelps to prevent dangerous temperature overshoot that will damage the expensive to replace heatingelement. The automatic model will achieve a slightly higher maximum temperature, 1121° C/2050° Fvs. 1093° C/2000° F for the manual model. The manual model has a mechanical control and a built-inpyrometer for monitoring the temperature. With the manual control you need to be careful not toovershoot the maximum temperature! Both models will achieve 982° C/1800° F in 22 minutes andhave a gold capacity of 930 grams/30 troy oz., silver capacity is 775 grams/25 troy oz. Both models arestocked in 110V and are available by special order in 220V. Made in the USA. Shipping weight is 15 lbs.

Ingot MoldsTe

ch T

ip To use Ingot molds you should first coat the inner surfaces of the ingot with soot or carbon. One way to do that is to pass a candle flame under the surfaces you wish to coat. Machine oil or fat can also beused. The surface coating acts like a parting agent and also helps form a smooth surface. The mold must then be heated with a torch or in an oven before melting the metal and pouring.

PMC Clay Fine Silver and 24 KaratPrecious Metal Clay (PMC) is a mixture of very finely powdered pure silver or gold, non-toxic binder, and water. This com-bination of materials makes a clay-like material, which can be easily molded using techniques similar to ceramic hand-building processes. Then after following a very simple firing procedure, PMC turns into solid metal that can be soldered,polished, or patinated just like regular silver or gold. PMC Silver (fine silver) comes in three types: PMC Standard, PMC +and PMC 3. PMC Gold (24 kt.) comes in one type.
