Snap-Stone

High strength, fast setting stone gypsum. ISO Type 4.

Snap-Stone is an exceptionally fast setting stone with an early high compressive strength, which allows separation of the cast from the impression in 5 minutes. Because Snap-Stone is fast setting, hand mixing is recommended. Snap-Stone is compatible with all impression materials and its versatile, light pink color makes it suitable for many uses.

Procedures which can be performed faster with Snap-Stone include:

• Bleaching trays
• Mouth guards
• Vacuum formed splints
• Custom trays
• Orthodontic appliances
• Temporaries
• Denture repairs
• Study casts
• Articulator cast mounting
