All dimensions Plus or minus 1mm. Sizes are diameters so half for wax radii
Some suppliers add an insulated sleeve to prevent heat transfer toi the central rod handle.
It depends on what supplier we get them from. If not required they can be cut off.
These are double ended tools suitable for two sizes of wax.
Chrome plated for longevity and ease of cleaning.

The wax is flexible enough to bend around curves.
Advantages of Wax Fillets:

Are easily applied to straight or irregularly shaped surfaces because of their flexibility.
-
Can be painted using our Pattern paints and lacquers.
-
Produce and maintain accurate radii regardless of application conditions.
-
Can be applied to bare wood or coated surfaces without the use of an adhesive by using a heated fillet tool.
