The Crucible Cover for metal melting

Short Description:

The Crucible Cover acts as a thermal shield. It traps heat, protecting the molten metal and reducing energy loss. This simple yet effective solution ensures:

  • Stable Temperatures: Crucibles heat faster and stay hotter longer.
  • Extended Equipment Life: Less thermal cycling means your furnace components last longer.
