Category: Jewellery Making Tools

Securely handle square casting dishes with these 19-inch crucible tongs, designed for stable metal pours directly from the furnace.

What it does

These tongs provide a firm, four-point grip on the corners of square casting dishes, ensuring a level surface for controlled pouring. The precisely machined jaws prevent the dish from tipping, a common issue with standard round-jaw tongs that can lead to spills and wasted metal. The turned wooden handle offers a comfortable, insulated grip, keeping your hands safely away from the heat of the crucible and furnace.

How to use it

  • Adjust jaws to fit your square dish securely.
  • Grip the dish firmly and lift from the furnace.
  • Pour molten metal carefully, maintaining a stable dish.

Who it's for

Ideal for UK bench jewellers, silversmiths, and small-scale casters working with gold, silver, and other non-ferrous metals. This tool replaces the need for less stable gripping methods, offering a professional solution for consistent casting results and replacing generic tongs that struggle with square dishes.

James U. ★★★★★

That four-point grip on the corners makes all the difference—the dish stays perfectly level even when the metal is heavy. The wooden handle stays cool enough that I don't need gloves for quick pours, and at 19 inches I can keep a safe distance from the furnace.

Harper ★★★★★

I was a little skeptical about the four-point grip, but it holds my square dish perfectly steady during pours. The wooden handle stays cool and comfortable even when the metal gets hot.

Eva ★★★★★

Finally I can pour metal without worrying about the tongs slipping. The 19-inch length keeps my hands well away from the heat, and the wooden handle stays cool even after several minutes of holding.
