Foundry Alloy Pieces ~34 lb Box with Freight ~(12%-Tin, 26%-Antimony, balance-Lead trace of CU and FE)

Great value! Quality Product. I was able to melt into ingots with minimal waste. I have ordered this four time and each time it produced my desired results. I'd order again!

Purchased three of these already and burned through the first one. Like others, I am fascinated by the individual letters and have some of my favorites set up for display. The amount of work that went into printing a newspaper everyday must have been phenomenal back then. I use this for adding a few percent of Tin and Antimony to my range scrap which brings it from a BHN of around 8 to ~11/12. For max power loads I then heat treat to 16 or 18 and they are strong but not brittle. A bit more work but man are the bullets accurate.

I have not yet used the foundry alloy prices. But the shipping was super fast.

Absolutely great material, with little dross and wonderful properties. Excellent people to deal with and fast shipping. Will buy again!

This is fantastic VFM if you need to harden plain lead. However, I wish I had known quite how much crud there was in this - lots of dust, pieces of copper and even some wood. It's not truly problematic per-se, but has totally crudded up the spout on my Lee Production Pot IV. If I had known in advance I would have done the initial casting-to-ingot phase in a simple cheap pan over an open flame... Probably also an indication of my inexperience! Great and friendly service too. Cut 1:1 with plain lead this should make Linotype, 1:2 for hardball etc.

This is the third time I have purchased this item. Again it was consistently clean with very little waste after casting into ingots.

exactly what i needed to harden up a large quantity of bullet lead. quick shipping.

Looks good - fair bit of dirt/dust/copper bits to screen/wash out- think floor sweepings- use disposable gloves and open the box inside a trash bag to contain the lead dust- probably best transfer it to ammo/paint can(s). Just over a gallon of typeset and bits just as they say.

thermometer needs a clip to hold it oin the pot
