AIM 58 Fusible Alloy

Uses: lens blocking; proof casting; fusible element in safety devices; anchoring parts for machining; sealing adjustment screws; holding jet engine blades for machining and broaching; filler for supporting castings in interrupted cuts.These silvery white alloys expand only ~3.3% of their volume when changing from liquid to solid form, which makes these alloys ideal for many industrial applications. AIM fusible alloys are rarely consumed in an operation and therefore can be remelted and used multiple times. These alloys are normally used in gravity casting but also can be used in other casting methods.Information provided by AIM Specialty Materials.
