Yellow Bronze Casting Grain
Get clean, durable casts with this yellow bronze casting grain. It delivers a rich yellow color, making it a great choice for large cast sculptural pieces. Because it is professionally produced, you can count on consistent, repeatable quality and composition over time. Sold by the pound. Applications Any casting method. Casting and Cleaning In general, your casting temperature should be 100˚F (37.7˚C) above the liquidus point (somewhat hotter if the castings are intricate). Use a small amount of high-quality flux when melting with an open flame. We recommend Matt’s Casting Flux™. For further cleaning, mechanical means are recommended. Re-Using If you plan to re-use bronze castings, remove the copper oxides from the surface in a pickling solution or by mechanical means. We recommend a minimum 1:1 ratio of new grain to used bronze. All re-used bronze should be clean and free of debris. Composition The grain is composed of 92% copper and various amounts of zinc and tin.
