Description
Sold by the ingot.
R98 Casting Alloy Pewter is an excellent casting pewter that contains approximately 98% Tin, 1.5% Bismuth, and 0.5% Copper.
The bismuth helps minimize shrinkage for small details, making this the best pewter from fine detail work.
The melting temperature is 466 -590 deg F and the pouring temperature is above that. Each ingot weighs approximately 1 pound.
Save money by ordering the 4 lb ingot. It's about double the thickness than our regular 1 lb ingot (shown in last image above) and each to saw cut in half if needed.
(If our supply of the 4 lb selection is unavailable, we will upgrade your order to 1 lb ingots at no additional charge.)

Great
Of the Pewter Alloys here this seems to have the least shrinkage and best detail. Have already reordered.

Quality Pewter
Good quality pewter; served my purpose and kept good detail for small items.

Great pewter
I've order this product twice. First time I got the R92 as well but I prefer the R98 for my castings and the detail it can capture. I prefer the small ingots Rotometals offer, they're easier to melt. Rotometals is great about shipping. Always fast, always correct. They're my go-to now for pewter.

Good Stuff
I've started a project, a pewter chess set. Did my first pour today, the pieces came out great. Great detail. Just ordered 2 more ingots.
