TECHCOAT™ 3 Engineered Shell System

TECHCOAT™ 3 is a next-generation engineered shell system of high-quality fused silica flour for precision investment casting use. It’s designed to deliver measurable performance gains where it matters most: strength, efficiency, and consistency in precision investment casting.

Built on over 30 years of proven fused silica technology, TECHCOAT 3 isn't just an incremental improvement; it's a step change for foundries looking to reduce costs, increase throughput, and eliminate variability. For foundry engineers, process managers, and owner-operators, this translates directly to a more reliable, cost-effective operation.

Why are leading foundries moving to TECHCOAT 3?

• Stronger shells → potential coat reduction and lower material/labor costs
• Minimal viscosity maintenance → less operator intervention, more uptime
• Superior edge building → fewer defects in complex geometries
• Fast, uniform drainage → shorter cycle times and improved productivity
• Enhanced permeability & dewax performance → cleaner burnout, fewer failures
• High-purity refractory system → long-term slurry stability and consistency

TECHCOAT 3 is engineered to fully integrate with our TECHSOL™ binders and additives, creating a system that works in harmony — not one you have to constantly manage. This is about running a tighter, faster, more predictable operation, reflecting our commitment to making casting easier.

Our technical team partners directly with your foundry to optimize slurry parameters, reduce process variability, and unlock the full performance potential of TECHCOAT 3 from day one. Available in 55 lb bags and bulk 2,200 lb bags to suit your operational scale.

If your current shell system is costing you valuable time, increasing labor demands, or hindering consistent output, it's time for an upgrade that truly enhances your bottom line. We believe in providing real solutions that contribute to your foundry's success.
