LSMIITTH 10-15KG Crucible Tongs and Lifter - 2 in 1 Metal Casting Foundry Tool

Worked well with 16 kg crucible.

As advertised will use soon

They were too big to used on a 12kg, so i had to take a hammer and make it smaller.

Wrong size…. Even if it was the right size , how the hell you gonna put them in the furnace and grab the crucible when they’re the WRONG DIRECTION! They don’t fit in the furnace! I’ll have to rebuild them entirely. Thanks for a parts kit.

I know these are cheap and so on. And I’m not a welder in any way but I do know when a weld is broken and I do know when someone don’t do even a crap job at it and with the welds broken and holes in the piece I don’t even think this thing will even be of use. Worst thing I have ever gotten through Amazon. And there is even weld splatter on the piece. And the high temp paint job is complete crap also.

Usable but perhaps overpriced. A good example of where being able to actually pick up and look at a product in a physical store before deciding to purchase would have been advantageous. The tongs will do though until I have the time to make a set myself. My actual review would be a 2.5, or "meh" as I've heard younger people say.

looking forward to using these tongs. solid iron, good clean welds. It's a tight fit for my 10kg furnace with the lifting tongs and, see some practice as one doesn't need or want to learn on the fly when handling molten metals. happy with the purchase. will add " in use photos" soon, maybe a short video.

Not worth your money. Welds are horrible, and they do not even close enough to grab crucible.
