par Otto Frei

Alliage de nickel ultra blanc 9K–18K pour pierres serties

Part # 846-982 5 In Stock Weight -- lb / -- g
$39.05

Description

Ultra White 9K–18K Stone-In-Place Investment Casting Master Alloy is formulated for excellent fluidity during casting and fabrication applications. Contains no gold. Sold by the troy ounce (20 pennyweights / 31.1 grams).

Features

  • Engineered for stone-in-place investment casting with excellent metal fluidity
  • Compatible with 9K through 18K gold formulations when pre-alloyed with fine gold
  • Suitable for both casting and fabrication applications
  • Contains no gold — a true master alloy for alloying to karat
  • Gypsum bonded investment recommended for best results
  • Fluoride-based investment removers recommended for silicon oxide coating removal

Flask Temperature 540°C – 675°C / 1004°F – 1247°F (varies by flask size, karat, and jewelry type)
Quench Time 15–25 minutes

Notes

  • Pre-alloying with fine gold using aggressive stirring and fluxing is recommended to ensure a uniform mixture.
  • Use very little boric acid flux. Do not use carbon flux such as soda ash or saltpeter. No flux is needed in a bottom-pour automatic casting unit.
  • To calculate the weight of metal needed (in grams), multiply density (g/cc) by the weight of wax (grams), then add 10% for the button.
  • Avoid aggressive acids for investment removal — use fluoride-based removers to prevent stress corrosion and surface damage.
  • Recommended scrap mix: 60% fresh, 40% scrap. Note that white gold alloy has approximately one-third the reusability of yellow gold alloys.
  • Melt temperature may vary depending on the type of casting unit used.
  • Proprietary metals are present in the formulation and are not fully disclosed in the composition data.
