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.Tin-Bismuth 60-40 is a tin-base alloy that can be melted easily. It is a non-eutectic alloy and melts through the temperature range 281-338 F (138-170 C). It provides scientists, engineers and technicians with an easily castable material that is ready for use soon after it freezes; in addition, it can be recovered readily an recycled into new uses any number of times. Among its many uses are fusible mandrels for electroforming, low-temperature solder, holding parts for machining, dies for a wax patterns for investments casting and liquid scals for furnaces.
