For UK jewellers and casters transferring hot flasks from kiln to casting machine, these tongs provide the necessary reach and a secure grip. Their 15-inch length allows you to handle investment flasks at a safe distance, ensuring a steady transfer during the critical casting stage.

Key features

  • 15-inch (380mm) overall length maintains a safe working distance from high-temperature kilns.
  • Curved jaws are designed to hold casting flasks and crucibles up to 10cm in diameter.
  • Inward-facing tips provide a secure grip on the flask flange, preventing rotation during transfer.
  • Formed from a single piece of steel for structural integrity and reliable spring tension.
  • Features a dark, matte finish suitable for workshop and foundry environments.
