Product information

Exceptionally strong gypsum cement designed for stretch-press dies and producing cope-and-drag equipment. *Produces high-quality, indoor novelty and statuary castings that require extremely hard surfaces and superior reproduction of fine detail. Superior expansion vs. Hydrocal® A-11 or B-11 Gypsum Cements. *High water absorption resistance.

MAIN FEATURES


  • Hydro-Stone® Gypsum Cement is especially suitable where high strength and resistance to water absorption are necessary. It is ideal for applications in both the tooling & prototyping and art & statuary categories.
  • Hydro-Stone® Gypsum Cement — For Tooling & Prototyping
  • Hydro-Stone® Gypsum Cement is ideal for stretch-press dies where extreme surface hardness is required. Offering greater expansion than Hydrocal® A-11 or B-11 Gypsum Cements, Hydro-Stone® Gypsum Cement:
  • Features a heavy, syrupy consistency, ideal for pouring into solid models or patterns (and making it ideal for filling multiple molds simultaneously)
  • Adapts to most flexible moulding compounds, due to its high absorption resistance
  • Sets in 17-20 minutes, after machine mixing
  • Requires 32 parts water by weight per 100 parts plaster.

NOTE — For best storage results, keep indoors in a dry, stable environment, away from drafts. Do not stack more than two pallets high.
