Resins Suitable for Thick Castings Up to 10cm Without Overheating

If you’re planning a deep resin pour—such as a river table or a large casting project—choosing the right epoxy is vital to achieve thicknesses of up to 10cm without risking overheating or poor cure quality.

Which Resin Is Suitable for Deep Castings?

For pours thicker than 5cm or with large dimensions, selecting a low-exothermic epoxy is crucial. Epoxytable 10-Ten is formulated for deep castings up to 10cm, allowing you to achieve beautiful transparent results on large projects with reduced risk of overheating and distortion.

Tips to Prevent Overheating During Deep Pours

  • Pour in a cool, well-ventilated workspace, ideally at moderate room temperature.
  • Carefully measure and mix the resin as per the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure proper cure.
  • For very large areas or when pouring over 8kg at once, consider working in layers or spreading the pour across multiple sessions if needed.

Allow each layer to partially cure before adding the next where possible—this helps regulate the temperature generated by the curing process.

When Deep Castings Matter

Thick pours up to 10cm are typically needed for river tables, statement furniture pieces, and artistic projects where additional depth and clarity are part of the design. Using a specialised deep-pour resin is essential here to achieve the crystal-clear, stable results expected.
