Ferris® File-A-Wax® Tubes

Start your model making with the finest carving wax in the industry, File-A-Wax. It’s the accepted standard in the industry for making a wide variety of designs, especially detailed carvings.

File-A-Wax is easily turned on a lathe. It burns out cleanly from flasks. Cannot be steam dewaxed. Not recommended for wax injectors. Color-coded hardness grades and various shapes to get you started (all are 6" long):

Green: A very hard wax, it can’t be flexed. Ideal for sharp edges and for intricate carvings and delicate engraving.

Purple: General purpose, hard with some flexibility.

Blue: Less hard and more flexible than green or purple. Good for rounded surfaces and less intricate designs.

Turquoise: Limited availability as this item will no longer be carried by Gesswein. Displays exceptional surface finish, especially in recessed areas. Maintains superior strength, toughness and extreme flexibility. Not brittle and thus making it very forgiving when milling prongs. When roughing out models, it does not clog the tools such as hand files.  

Both tubes and bars measure 6" long and can be easily cut to your specifications. Tubes are available fully round with offset hole, fully round with centered hole and flat top with the same 5/8" diameter finger hole - all are ideal for shaping rings. Bars are solid and are best suited for making items such as cuff links, charms and medallions.

Also available in blocks and slices.
