Description

This is 45  lbs (2 bags at ~22.5 pounds each) of raw reclaimed lead that has not been washed     It is also great for making scuba weights, for use as ballast weight or a cheap lead source for other projects. Please be aware that these BB's may still have a small amount of foreign objects, i.e. pebbles or dirt in it. The bag will contain a mix of all sizes - mainly around 7.5 and 8. Our reclaimed lead averages about 5% Antimony Lead. Bulk orders of this product are available. This is the best value for inexpensive ballast weight.

Each bag measures approximately 10" x 5" x 2"

Approximate Pounds per cubic foot: 350 - 380 pounds

    Ballast Weight

    Posted by Satisfied on Oct 12th 2020

    It arrived exactly as described, shot from ranges that had been sifted out and bagged. This leaves pebbles the same size or smaller, silt, steel shot, etc. so be prepared for that if you're buying this to melt. In the end, I was able to recover about 85% by weight in lead by melting into ingots. Shot like this is usually about 5% antimony at most, and little if any other additives. I think in the future I may just go ahead and buy the already washed and graphited shot or ingots as the yield by weight will be higher enough to make up for the price difference. Prompt shipping and competitive price, will definitely order from here again. The only way to do better on lead price is to also do the recovery/scrapping work yourself.

    Lead Shot

    Posted by Brian D on Aug 23rd 2019

    The two 25 lb bags fit in the Caldwell FCX lead sled perfectly. A little dust but not too much.

    Ballast Weight Reclaimed Lead 50 Pounds

    Posted by Christopher Kislinger on May 23rd 2019

    Package arrived quickly. I appreciate the double boxing because it looked like it received some rough handling in transit. I think it gave the mailman a hernia. The bags fit perfectly in my Caldwell Lead Sled canvas bags. Very pleased.

    Needed this to make some counterweights for a pulley system I rigged up. Reasonably priced and really quick ship!
