View Sample Alloy Digest Data Sheet (PDF)Since 1952, Alloy Digest has been the leading reference for materials property data on metals and alloys used throughout the world. Featuring graphs, charts and tables, these sheets give facts and figures on composition or characterization, physical and mechanical properties, heat treatment, and machinability.INDALLOY 117 is a bismuth-base, eutectic alloy that has a melting point of 117 F (47 C). Because of its low melting temperature and controlled-shrinkage characteristics, it is used widely in industry. The alloy can be recovered easily and recycled into new uses any number of times. Its many uses include low-temperature solder, proof casting, fusible elements in safety devices and model railroading.
