ADAMS EASY-OFF FLASK SAND CASTING MOLD 12X12X9IN 5 DEG TAPER

THE ADAMS FLASKS IS A SAND CASTING MOLD DESIGNED FOR FOUNDRY APPLICATIONS, FEATURING AN INSIDE PARTING DIMENSION OF 12 INCHES BY 12 INCHES AND A TOTAL HEIGHT OF 9 INCHES. CONSTRUCTED AS A WOOD BOX WITH A METAL EDGE, THE FLASK IS BUILT USING HIGH-GRADE MATERIALS, TYPICALLY CHERRY WOOD, WITH SECTIONS FINISHED AT 1 1/8 INCH THICKNESS FOR THIS STANDARD SIZE. A NOTABLE FEATURE IS THE "POP - OFF" MECHANISM, WHICH IS CHARACTERISTIC OF THE ADAMS "EASY-OFF" FLASK SERIES. THIS MECHANISM IS DESIGNED TO OPERATE WITH A SPREADING MOTION FOR THE RAPID AND CLEAN REMOVAL OF THE PATTERN. THE FLASK UTILIZES RUGGED OPERATING MECHANISMS, OFTEN INCORPORATING ALUMINUM BODY CASTINGS FOR THE CORNER ASSEMBLY, WHICH ASSURES ACCURATE ALIGNMENT OF THE COPE AND DRAG. FLASKS OF THIS TYPE ARE COMMONLY MANUFACTURED WITH A STANDARD 5 DEGREE TAPER.
