NuCAST180

Why is NuCAST180 a better solution?

Frontline Forensics have developed a quick-setting, footwear casting kit that enables a fast, easy and accurate footwear casting process for the forensic professionals.

 

  • Pre-measured components for an accurate effective mixture every time
  • Packaged in a disposable, recyclable container. A neat, clean process. No mess, No fuss.
  • The container offers a quick mixing solution with lump free results in 35 seconds
  • Easy, controlled pouring for accurate distribution across the whole print
  • Ready to lift casts in 3 to 4 minutes (setting times may be longer in significantly colder climates)
  • With a higher strength NuCAST180 casts are less likely to break than original materials and processes
  • Excellent for both volume and serious crime where quick evidence collection is needed

 

With more than 38 years of experience in forensics and law enforcement, Duane Hilderbrand, M.Ed., is recognized by the I.A.I. as a Certified Latent Print Examiner, Certified Footwear Examiner, and Certified Senior Crime Scene Analyst. His expertise in footwear and tyres has led him to testify in several high profile murder trials, speak at conferences, and consult with mystery writers – in addition to writing his own book, Footwear: The Missed Evidence. As an expert in casting materials, he consented to test NuCAST’s claims. Says Hilderbrand,

“I recommend this product as a fast, easy to use and useful method of casting.The material was easy to use and fast. I have personally worked and assisted in the design of many casting materials presently on the market, but this product impresses me under normal conditions.”
