11120 WaterShed
(SLA 5000)		 Used to build either a 3D model or a hollow pattern (QuickCast) for investment casting, this material provides a highly accurate part with a clean, detailed surface finish.  Can be built at .004 - .006 inch layer thickness.
  • Accurate with high detail capability
  • Excellent surface finish
  • Can be painted, dyed, polished
  • Can be processed for near optical clarity
  • Rugged rigid material
  • Tolerances +/- 0.005 (Dependant upon part geometry and size)
  • Concept models
  • Fit and function
  • Applications requiring optical clarity for flow analysis, light pipes
  • Patterns for investment casting
  • Excellent patterns for RTV molding
