Casting Frame

Create molds from Alumilite™ or other popular silicone-based mold materials in a Casting Frame designed to your specifications. Made of clear acrylic, the smooth-cut 4 layer system allows you to watch as you pour mold material into the frame, see it set, and easily remove it by separating one layer at a time.

Main Benefits:

  • Conserve mold material
  • Minimize bubbles & debris
  • Fast set up & clean up

Easy Ordering

Give us the interior length & width of your casting frame. Calculate it by adding 1/2 inch to the largest measurement in each dimension of the piece you want to cast. This will provide a 1/4 inch border for a stable mold. We will cut your dimensions out of appropriate sized acrylic plates. Standard frames allow for molds up to three quarters of an inch thick (1/4 inch per plate). If your piece requires a mold deeper than 3/4 inch, order extra plates as needed.

Standard Casting Frame includes:

  • One 1/4 inch solid acrylic base plate
  • Three 1/4 inch acrylic frame plates with custom cut cavities and labeled dimensions
  • Four sets of bolts and wing nuts to secure the plates during the mold making process

Options

  • Large frames (> 36 square inches per plate or > 23 inches in one dimension) - contact us for a custom quote
  • Extra Plates - $3 standard (36 sq in or less)
  • Double Cavity Frames (for creating 2 molds simultaneously for items like knife bolsters) - add $5

Item Options

Enter the interior width of your frame in inches. The width should be 1/2 inch greater than the widest width measurement of the piece you are casting.

Enter the interior length of your frame in inches. The length should be 1/2 inch greater than the longest length measurement of the piece you are casting.

For more than 3/4 inch deep molds, add more plates. Each plate is 1/4 inch thick, giving you another 1/4 inch of depth. We will include appropriate length bolts to fasten all plates together at once. If you require more than five additional plates, contact us for a custom quote.

If you would like your frame to include double cavities of the same size, indicate below. This option is popular for knife makers who want to make molds of both sides of a bolster prior to assembling a knife.
