Casting Metals
Melt and pour these alloys into molds to create metal parts and prototypes.
Lead can be used for caulking, castings, and hot-dipped coatings.
Lead-base coppered babbitt is able to withstand shock and vibration and requires less lubrication than other types of babbitt. Use it to cast bearings for low-speed, heavy-load applications.
