Lee PRECISION MELTER capacity 1800 gram
[90024]

109.00 Euro
Reviews


Product Description

  Large diameter pot wich holds approximately 1800 gram.
Melting time is +/- 15 minutes.

With adjustable heat control.
Uses 500 watts of power during heat-up and a lot less to maintain temperature.

Large stabel base for safety.

This 230 volt version of this Lee Precision Melter is designed for use outside of the USA and is therefor supplied without a plug.
The user must install the appropriate plug that works in conjunction with the existing outlet.


Attention

  Melting lead and casting lead objects will expose you and others in the erea to lead.
Always take care and provide for sufficient ventilation of your workspace.


Caution

● Be extremely careful not to get any water into the molten lead. Even a small drop will explode into steam and violently spatter hot lead.
● Wear safety glasses while using.
● Use only in areas of adequate ventilation. Air flow sufficient to carry away the smoke of an extinguished match is considered adequate.
● Keep food and drink out of the work area. Wash hands before eating or smoking.


Instructions

Set Up
1 Place the melter on a stable work bench or table. Do not place in a draft or allow a fan to blow directly on the pot.
2 Route the power cord so it will not be tripped over or pulled by a child.
3 Fill the pot with desired casting alloy.
7 Set heat control to Medium and plug in.

Directions
It will take about 15 minutes to heat 4 lbs. of metal to 600 degrees; line voltage greatly affects melt time.
After the metal is melted, adjust heat setting to desired position. The markings are reference numbers only and do not indicate temperature.
The high setting will stabilize at approximately 900° F. and the low about 450° F.
Cast at the lowest temperature that will give good fill out. 650° F. is a good starting point.

The metal should be fluxed whenever more metal is added to the pot. A small piece of wax about the size of a pea works well as a flux. Be prepared for a flame when the wax is added to the pot. Stir the metal vigorously and scrape the side and bottom of the pot to dislodge impurities, which will float and can be skimmed off and discarded properly.

The following metals can not be melted in this pot;
• GOLD • SILVER • ZINC • COPPER • PEWTER • ALUMINUM

Tips
Flux and skim only after adding more metal to the pot.
Before storing your melter for extended periods, spray all steel parts with a silicone spray or rust inhibitor, like WD·40.
Store your melter with about an inch of metal in the bottom. It speeds the next melt.

Rule of Thumb for Hardening Lead
For every 1% additional tin, Brinell hardness increases 0.29
For every 1% additional antimony, Brinell hardness increases 0.92

Sample equation: Brinell = 5 Brinnell Pure Lead + (0.29 x Tin percentage) + (0.92 x Antimony percentage)

For example, if you increase the amount of tin by 10% and the amount of antimony by 5%, the Brinell hardness of your lead will be 12.5 Brinell hardness 12.5 = 5 + ( 0.29 x 10 ) + ( 0.92 x 5)
