Hand Protection
Take care when handling molten metals by wearing safety gloves that are meant for high-heat situations. Available in a wide range of sizes for all your students, most foundry gloves or mittens are designed to withstand temperatures up to 2,000°F thanks to wool insulation, a fiberglass coating, and Kevlar® stitching. A student getting burned is the last thing you want to deal with but thankfully, one of the easiest accidents to prevent.
Ingots & Molds
Find the right mold for draining extra molten metal from a crucible or pigging cleaned scrap and remelting into ingots for reuse or storage. For fresh projects, explore the high-quality alloys and metals to make your students’ creative visions a reality.
