Burno Melting Crucibles
Their protective heat holding covers make them efficient for melting with a torch. An excellent choice when melting bench sweeps or gold in powder form. For use with Burno Tongs. 100 dwt. capacity.$20.70SKU: 22.757
Casting Fluxes
Borax Flux
Controls oxidation during the melting process by forming a glass that both covers the metal and causes metal oxides to stick to it. 16 ounces.$11.95SKU: BORAX
Boric Acid Flux
Good deoxidizer. Can be mixed with borax or used alone. When using with pure graphite crucibles, should be used sparingly. 16 ounces.$11.95SKU: BORIC
Casting Additives
Re-Cast-It
Add Re-Cast-It when casting old or scrap gold to achieve a bright yellow, porosity free casting. Increases fluidity of old metal, while eliminating reddish surface discoloration. One jar casts approximately 800 dwt. of gold.$73.70SKU: 22.607
