342 Bronze Casting Alloy
Purpose
342 Bronze Casting Alloy is a bright yellow bronze designed to cast jewellery samples, models, art objects, etc.
It finishes to a bright 14K colour and easily solders with silver or low-gold formulas.

Flask Temperature
A high flask temperature for light and medium weight pieces is recommended.

Boracic acid

Avoid flux in bottom pour automatic casting units.
