Oxidation-proof 304 stainless steel construction — resists corrosion and withstands temperatures up to 1600°F, giving reliable performance for metal casting and gold melting tasks. Textured convex jaws with a 360° steady clamping force — delivers a firm, even grip that minimizes accidental drops of molten metal crucibles during high-temperature handling. Laboratory-level design for multiple environments — engineered for foundry and lab crucible handling, welding workshops, and heavy-duty use as charcoal grill utensils. 5-piece kit for uninterrupted workflow — five identical tongs provide full coverage during casting sessions so you can maintain consistent technique and uniform results batch after batch. Key benefits (why you need them) Safety: secure, all-around clamping reduces the chance of slips and spills when handling hot crucibles or molten metal. Consistency: identical tongs in one kit ensure repeatable handling and fewer interruptions during multi-step jobs. Durability: 304 stainless steel and high-temperature tolerance mean longer service life in corrosive or high-heat applications. Practical use scenarios Jewelry bench: safely lift and pour small crucibles while melting gold or silver. Small foundry or welding shop: move and position crucibles during metal casting or heat-treating operations. Outdoor grilling or blacksmithing: use as sturdy tongs for handling charcoal, hot tools, or heavy components. What you get Five laboratory-grade crucible tongs, each built to the same specification for consistent grip, heat resistance, and long-term reliability.
