Clay Graphite Crucibles #2 are expertly engineered for melting and casting non-ferrous metals like gold, silver, copper, brass, and aluminum. Crafted from a durable blend of natural graphite and refined clay, these crucibles offer exceptional refractoriness, thermal shock resistance, and chemical stability, making them the preferred choice in professional metalworking and jewelry casting.
Clay graphite crucibles are known for their high resistance to oxidation, outstanding thermal conductivity, and long service life. These properties ensure that your metals melt evenly, with minimal contamination and reduced metal loss. Whether you're working in a high-temperature furnace or using a torch setup, this crucible performs reliably under extreme heat—withstanding temperatures from 850°C to 1600°C (1562°F to 2912°F).
This size #2 model offers a generous melting capacity of up to 120 oz. (3,732 grams) of 18K gold, making it ideal for medium-scale refining and casting applications. The interior dimensions of 3 inches diameter by 3.75 inches depth ensure smooth metal flow and easy pouring. Meanwhile, the outer dimensions of 4 inches diameter by 4.38 inches height allow it to fit most standard melting furnaces with ease.
With its smooth interior surface, this crucible minimizes oxidation and contamination risks—perfect for jewelers, metal casters, refiners, and artisans who demand high purity and performance.
Whether you're casting intricate jewelry pieces or refining raw metals, this crucible ensures high-yield, clean melts with lasting durability.
