Wetting Agent (Victawet)

Wetting Agent (Victawet) is a wetting agent, high-quality additive for precision investment casting use.

This liquid wetting agent improves slurry adhesion and uniform coverage on wax patterns during the critical primary dip. It reduces surface tension and promotes smooth, even coating—essential for achieving sharp detail and preventing shell defects. The additive is low-foaming, disperses quickly, and helps maintain slurry stability without affecting viscosity or drying time.

Typically added at 0.25% of total binder volume and adjusted as needed, this wetting agent is an absolute must in colloidal silica based slurries. Foundries rely on it to improve pattern wetting, reduce rework, and ensure consistent shell quality in aerospace, stainless steel, and high-precision castings.

Ships in 1 gal containers, 5 gal pails, and 55 gal drums.
