Water Jacketed Wax Melter 70L

The 70 Litre Stainless Steel Steam Wax Melter is a practical and efficient solution for melting down old brood comb, super comb and wax cappings, allowing you to recover beeswax while preparing wooden frames for reuse. Designed for use with a steam generator, steam is fed into the stainless steel tank through the hose connection in the lid. As the comb melts, the wax and water flow out through the outlet pipe at the bottom of the tank, while the internal perforated basket retains old cocoons, debris and other unwanted material. Once processed, suitable wooden frames can be cleaned and fitted with new foundation, helping you reuse valuable beekeeping equipment and reduce waste.
