Facsimile Compound

MAKES ACCURATE HARD PLASTIC REPRODUCTION IN 6 TO 8 MINUTES

Facsimile® is a special plastic compound kit which is used for duplicating surface flats, roughness and for dimensional transfer of inaccessible locations. Many other applications are listed below.

• Make duplicates for measuring, such as gages, etc.
• Mask, fill in and seal.
• Test surface geometry, flatness, microfinish, etc.
• Fretting depth of blade dovetails in jet engines.
• Make permanent records of surface geometry, etc.
• Make potting, bonding and repairing easy.
• Make custom holding and nesting fixtures.
• Make quick jigs.
• Make instant molds and patterns.
• Make excellent stylus patterns.
• Closer inspection can be performed by allowing the casting to cure in a pressure vessel (15 p.s.i.).
• When casting in a “CONFINED” area, it is better to cast 1 /2 of the internal shape.
• Facsimile® will not affect the surface of ferrous or non-ferrous materials to which it is applied.
• Remember—when casting without releasing agent, an ACETONE soak removes Facsimile®.
• Cast small run parts and prototypes.

AVAILABLE IN LARGER “ECONOMY” KITS
