1 KG Capacity
This mold is designed for casting ingots up to approximately 1 kilogram, depending on the density and type of metal being poured.
Important: The actual weight of a finished ingot will vary by metal. Different metals have different densities, so the mold's stated capacity should not be interpreted as an exact finished weight for every material.
Traditional Open Loaf Design
The open-top design makes pouring straightforward and produces a classic loaf-style ingot.
Open molds are useful for:
-
Refining operations
-
Precious-metal recovery
-
Jewelry workshops
-
Gold and silver casting

It's a useful addition to equipment used for:
Mold Preparation Is Important
Proper mold preparation is an important part of metal casting.
The mold should be completely dry and appropriately prepared for the specific metal and casting process before molten metal is introduced.
Never pour molten metal into a mold containing water or moisture. Contact between molten metal and moisture can cause an extremely dangerous reaction, including the violent ejection of hot or molten material.
Follow accepted metal-casting procedures and any applicable manufacturer instructions.
