For UK jewellers and casters melting and pouring precious metals, these tongs offer a secure grip on hot crucibles. The design provides stability during the pour, whilst the insulated PVC handles reduce heat transfer for safer, controlled work. Please note, the crucible is shown for demonstration and is not included.

Key features

  • Steel ring jaw is shaped to encircle the crucible body for a stable hold.
  • A straight top bar secures the crucible from above, preventing tipping during a pour.
  • Red PVC-dipped handles provide thermal insulation and a comfortable, non-slip grip.
  • Long steel shanks keep hands at a safe distance from the heat source.
  • Robust pivot joint allows for a smooth and controlled clamping action.

Who it's for

An essential tool for bench jewellers, silversmiths, and metalsmiths who regularly melt and pour non-ferrous metals. Also suitable for small-scale foundry work and hobbyist metal casters requiring reliable crucible handling.
