Instructions for casting dipped lead

Casting lead means handling extremely hot, liquid metal. For this reason, care must be taken to wear the appropriate protective equipment.

Metals such as lead, tin and zinc melt at lower temperatures than steel. The melting point of lead is 327.5°C. This temperature can be reached with a simple propane gas burner.

When melting lead, make sure that there is good ventilation and that no vapours are inhaled. Our lead mould is made of aluminium. The melting point of aluminium is 660°C. As it is possible to heat lead above the melting point of aluminium, care should be taken not to heat the lead above this melting point.

Lead has a high density and can store heat well, therefore the lead mould must be cooled down well, which can be done after the immersion lead has solidified in water. Be aware that water vapour and hot water splashes may occur. After cooling, the dipping lead can be shaped. This is best done on a wooden base by hitting the mould upside down on the wood, now more lead can be cast. After cooling, the dipping lead can be further processed.
