Atomized Aluminum

Finely atomized (spherical-particle) aluminum powder. In excess of 500 mesh, 95%+ purity, suspected to be recycled structural alloys.

Atomized Copper

Finely atomized (spherical-particle) pure copper powder, for use as a heat transfer medium, catalyst, or anything else one uses fine copper powder for. Mix with silicone grease for fantastic homemade heatsink paste!

Atomized Stainless Steel

Fine atomized stainless steel, chemically stable and non-toxic, good for adding weight, strength, or metallic finish to resins and epoxies. Particle size is about 44µm, or 325 mesh, on average. Primarily 316, but because the original metal was recycled, purity is not guaranteed.

Atomized Steel

Atomized steel powder, much finer than "iron filings" sold in most "science" kits to "children" these days, excellent for magnetics, fireworks, or adding cheap easy weight to your project.

Very capable pigment for making magnetic pastes, putties, and paints, but a little too clunky for proper ferrofluid. Some paint mediums react with metallic powders over time, so we recommend mixing and using as needed.

Also works well for cold-casting, which is a way to cast objects with a metallic look, weight, and feel, but without the machinery necessary to actually cast steel. Simple mix roughly 1/1 by weight of this powder with your resin of choice, let cure, then polish for a metallic finish. As this is iron, not stainless (which we also offer), it will rust, just like actual iron.

Bismuth Shot, 99%

Bismuth is probably most well-known for the incredible crystals it forms, commonly sold at "mineral" shows, even though they are completely synthetic.

Other uses include low-melting point alloys such as solders and pepto-bismol. Bismuth is also the most diamagnetic element, meaning it repels all magnets, regardless of pole. However, the effect is extremely weak.

Nickel Chunks, 99.94%

Very pure chunks of nickel, the beautiful shiny metal that makes coins and stainless steel possible.

Sticks to a magnet, but contains no iron and will not rust! A unique example of magnetic but non-ferric metal.

Chunk weight varies, you are however guaranteed at least 1 ounce of nickel. Most weight 1.5+ ounce, if you're interested in buying by exact weight, contact us.

Tin Shot, 99.95%

Super pure (99.95%+), super shiny, super beautiful tin! One of the easiest metals to melt and cast at only 450°f melting point, completely non-toxic in almost all forms, and doesn't corrode under normal conditions. What's not to like?

Zinc Balls, 1lb

Huge solid zinc balls, weighing roughly a pound a piece. That's all there is to know.
