Novocast
For Low Fusing Crown and Bridge Alloys
NOVOCAST is an advanced inlay investment that provides increased accuracy for casting conventional gold alloys at a mold temperature of 650 degrees C (1,200 degrees F) without the use of a water bath.
Features:
- Expansion Control Expansion can be controlled by merely varying the water/powder ratio. While many modern investments have been developed to minimize the effect of changing the water/powder ratio, NOVOCAST takes advantage of this convenient property -- without requiring an unusually thick mix.
- Technique the Same for all Types of Castings
- NOVOCAST has the singular property of furnishing the needed expansion to accurately fit both the intra-coronal and extra-coronal surfaces of different preparations.
- Clean and Smooth Gold Castings
- NOVOCAST sets rapidly to produce a strong, ultra smooth mold with easy 'dig-out,' and produces clean and shiny gold castings
