Med Plastic Found HvyWax 100PK

Extra wax to increase the acceptance of the frames by the bees and entice them to draw the frames out faster!

Plastic foundation requires less work than crimp-wire and comes in two colors (white & black) allowing you customize your setup to meet your needs. Works with new or old wooden frames with grooved top bars.

Coated with a heavy layer of wax!

Black foundation:

• Great for brood, the high contrast against eggs allows easier identification

White foundation:

• Great for supers, the light nature of the plastic displays true color of honey

• Looking for an assembled plastic all in one frame with foundation already installed? Try Pierco’s One-Piece Frame + Foundation

How to Install:

Put either the top or bottom edge of the foundation into its groove in the frame, then flex the foundation and pop the other edge into the other groove. Foundation comes coated with a thin layer of beeswax, but we recommend coating these with more beeswax when starting frames (instructions for waxing) Bees draw out wax-coated plastic foundation, all-wax foundation, or foundationless frames equally well, if they have a populous hive and plenty of nectar coming in (or sugar syrup).

Dimensions:

• Foundation: 16-3/4″ long x 5-5/8″ high
• Cell Size: 5.2mm
