Featuring Aluminum, Lead, Pewter, Solders, Jewelry, Sculpture, Tin, Zinc Alloys in a variety of forms for many applications

White metals are any of several light-colored alloys used as a base for plated silverware, ornaments or novelties, as well as any of several lead-based or tin-based alloys used for things like bearings, jewelry, miniature figures, fusible plugs, and many other applications.

White Metal alloys are generally made up of these metals: Antimony, Tin, Cadmium, Bismuth, and Zinc, though which ones being used vary based on the need. As an example, a base metal for jewelry needs to be castable, polishable, have good flow characteristics and have the ability to cast fine detail without an excessive amount of porosity.

Applications: Jewelry Alloys, Pewter, Babbitt Alloys, Fusible Alloys, Tin-Lead Solders, Casting Alloys, Aluminum Joining

Forms: Pig, Ingot, Bar, Cake, Shot, Granular, Mossy
