The specific draft angle required can vary depending on several factors, including the type of material being cast, the complexity of the part geometry, and the depth of the mold cavity. Generally, a draft angle of 1 to 3 degrees is often recommended, although some complex geometries may require angles up to 5 degrees or more. For larger parts, steeper draft angles may be advantageous, while smaller parts can often get by with less taper.
