Description
This Lead Wire 25 lb Spool is made from 99.9% pure lead wire and meets current ASTM B29 03 requirements. The wire is supplied on a spool with an approximate weight of 22–27 lb; spool shape and dimensions can vary. Lead is soft and malleable and has a stated melting point of 621°F, making this material appropriate for a range of forming and casting applications described by the product information.
Choose the diameter that fits your project: 1/8 in., 3/16 in., 7/32 in., 1/4 in., 5/16 in., 3/8 in., or 1/2 in. Approximate footage per roll is 413 ft for 1/8 in., 183 ft for 3/16 in., 135 ft for 7/32 in., 103 ft for 1/4 in., 66 ft for 5/16 in., 45 ft for 3/8 in., and 25 ft for 1/2 in. The 3/4 in. diameter is available separately by the foot.
With a listed thickness tolerance of 0.009 in., this lead wire is stocked in sizes for art projects, fishing uses including sinker and fishing-gear repair, fishing-fly tying, and small bullet manufacture for firearms or airguns. This makes it a practical choice when searching for lead wire for bullet maing, as well as for hobby and artistic uses. Tighter tolerance is available by special order.
For higher-volume requirements, larger spools are available for commercial production runs, and custom pricing is offered for orders of 1,000 lb or more on large spools. The listed composition includes 99.90% minimum lead, with the supplied actual lead content stated as 99.9314%.

Lead wire
Ordered the 25# 3/16" roll for pressing slugs for the mere fact Corbin logistics sucks. Going out on a limb I took a chance Rotometals would be a viable supply source. And let me tell you they didn't fail to impress. Really, real quick shipping and the material has a consistent diameter and very soft lead. There is no doubt about their 99.9% pure lead claim. Thanks Rotometals you have gained a new loyal customer.

Lead wire .312" diameter
I ordered a 25 lb. spool. The spool had 26 written on it. I weighed it and it was 27 lbs. That's good for me. It appears to be clean at this time. I used a short length to swage cores used in .38 caliber and 9mm bullet projectiles immediately after receiving my order. I had no problems with the lead wire. It appears to be as advertised, 99%+ soft lead wire. This is my second order. Primary reason for purchase was the more than $1.00 less cost per pound than my previous supplier. This cost includes Roto Metals $12.00 shipping cost as compared to my previous suppliers base cost for lead and did not include their $30.00 or $36.00 shipping fee. So perhaps my cost is closer to $2.00 cheaper per pound from Roto Metals. This is my second order from Roto Metals. I saved about $1.00 or $2.00 per pound for a 25 pound order also.

Lead wire.
Hi, I am from the UK and couldn’t be happier with your company’s service, responsive fast service, believe it or not the roll of lead was cheaper than in UK and even with shipping costs it was still a lot cheaper than at home. Thank you and when I’ve finished this roll I will be ordering from you again. Regards Paul.
