Melt and pour up to 2kg of precious metal with this robust graphite crucible and 13-inch steel pouring tongs set.

What it does

This set allows for safe and controlled handling of molten gold, silver, and other alloys. The crucible features a precisely machined groove on its rim, designed to securely engage with the circular jaws of the steel tongs. This interlocking mechanism provides exceptional stability during the pouring process, minimising the risk of spills. The tongs' ergonomic blue coating ensures a comfortable and firm grip even when working at high temperatures.

How to use it

  • Preheat crucible and tongs before use.
  • Carefully lift crucible using the secure groove and tongs.
  • Pour molten metal smoothly into your mould.

Who it's for

Essential for UK silversmiths, jewellers, and small-scale casting studios undertaking larger melts. This setup replaces less secure methods for handling significant quantities of metal, streamlining workflow for intermediate and professional bench workers. Ideal for those graduating from smaller crucible sizes.

Zoe H. ★★★★★

The 13-inch tongs give a really solid grip even when the crucible is full of molten silver, and the graphite held up perfectly to a couple of back-to-back melts. It's a straightforward setup that feels safe and sturdy enough for serious use.

Richard ★★★★★

The 13-inch tongs give me way more confidence than my old setup—no more shaky hands when the crucible is full. That 2kg graphite crucible held up beautifully through three melts back-to-back, and the metal poured clean every time.

Nicholas ★★★★★

The tongs grip the crucible firmly, and the 13-inch length keeps my hands well away from the heat. Melted a full 2kg of scrap silver without any spalling or cracks in the graphite. Exactly what I needed for my casting setup.
