Esox lucius
The Pike 4 eye was developed with the leading taxidermists and will be an excellent option for both commercial and competition taxidermy. With a well-defined, teardrop pupil, surrounded by a narrow yellow ring, and a smoky iris with a complex grayish-beige pattern, this eye is true in shape, size and coloration. The eye is made from polyether materials (similar to acrylic) using our own patented technology that gives them extreme hardness, chemical stability, and heat resistance.
The eyes can be dry-cleaned, treated with most organic solvents, and heated to 130 degrees Celsius (about 260 degrees Fahrenheit) for 20 minutes. The iris and pupil are digitally printed, which allows us to create very complex images. The image is refracted by the strong lens in a special way, creating the unique effect of a real eye.
On the back side of the eye, there is a ribbed plastic peg that helps position and set the eye on a mold. It can be snapped off if not needed.
