Giessfix 162 is a setting agent, suitable for deflocculation of most ceramic raw materials. Foundry clays that are deflocculated with this setting agent generally have a wide deflocculation range. This means that natural variations in the raw materials can generally be compensated for.

Giessfix 162 can be combined with most known setting agents, but a combination with Dolaflux B has proven to be very successful.
The amount of addition varies depending on the specific weight of the casting clay and we recommend that you follow the recipes given and do your own tests.

Don't forget to read the safety data sheet and instructions on the product before use. For more information, see the Product Information tab below.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here you will find answers to the most frequently asked questions about Lervis and our products.

  • If you are a beginner, we recommend that you use a clay that works for several different techniques. It should contain approx. 25% chamotte with a grain size of up to 0.2mm.

    If you want a light-colored clay, I recommend clay no. 254
    If you want a speckled clay, I recommend clay no. 930

    Both of these also work well with all glazes.
