FEDPAD – Insulating Pad, a simple yet highly effective tool used in foundries to improve metal yield, control shrinkage, and enhance directional solidification — especially when conventional sleeves can't be used.

Key Features:

• Flat, Moldable Pad Design
  • Typically disc or rectangular shape
  • Easily placed against the mold cavity or core
  • Available in multiple sizes and thicknesses
• Thermally Insulating Only
  • No exothermic reaction
  • Retains heat in localized areas of the casting
  • Helps delay solidification in critical zones
• Flexible Placement
  • Can be glued, pinned, or inserted into the mold wall or core
  • Often used where sleeves are not possible due to geometry or mold constraints
