Should you mix aluminum with lead? In this video, I'll show you what could happen if you mix metals that have a different melting point. I overheated the lead which contained zinc causing it to spark and smoke a lot. After pouring the aluminum lead ingot, it became very brittle and a pieces broke off. I decided to paint the ingot black and add the biohazard symbol on it. The paint I used was provided by Magicfly. They have amazing acrylic paint that dries really fast and works perfect on metal.

@ncoutdooradventures6148 3 года назад

I'm really curious as to the attributes of this mix. I saw where you said it was brittle, but,,, would you say it was a weighted aluminum? A harder lead? I'm looking for a corrosion resistant metal (the aluminum), that would have more weight (the lead), but would be more stiff than lead alone. Would you say this combo would fulfill that?

@JPKenneys 4 года назад

Not worried about grinding lead dust all over your shop? And those zinc fumes are toxic.

@jimmytimmy2476 4 года назад

I'm shure he wears a respirator in some of his videos you can see when lying around on the shelves same with BigstackD almost all metal fumes can be toxic so if you work with them this often you really do need a mask.

@@jimmytimmy2476 almost all except zinc actually. Zinc fumes may cause you to feel like crap for a couple of weeks but no long term side effects. Also note that melting zinc alone doesn't release any metal vapors into surroundings unless overheated till boil.

@tinypanther3320 Год назад

I don’t see how you could even alloy aluminum with lead when lead is so much more dense then aluminum seems like you would have to manually mix them together until both metals are melted but I’m not a blacksmith so idk lol 😂

@Mistertbones 4 года назад

The answer to this question is no. It's not a good idea. But at least you did the experiment so we don't have to.

@gilles111 4 года назад

Just lead and aluminium isn't bad. In the aluminium-industry, lead is very often mixed in. It strengthens the aluminium for those cases it has to be used in a lathe. Just be 100% sure there is no zinc in it.

@vantajmnextajm2402 3 года назад

@@gilles111 why not zinc?

@gilles111 3 года назад

@@vantajmnextajm2402 You can mix zinc with aluminium, there are some very strong and well conducting alloys of aluminium, zinc and magnesium - even used in space ships. Problem by mixing in conditions like in this video, at home without the non-oxygen-surrounding and very strong fume/smoke extraction you will find in factories, the zinc will produce very toxic fumes (and most gasmasks / respirators won't protect against those fumes). So that's why it isn't a good idea to mix in any zinc. The result can be seen at 3:06 in the video.

@vantajmnextajm2402 3 года назад

@@gilles111 that's because of overheating. Unless u boil the zinc (about 800C needed) vapor won't spread into surroundings.

@gilles111 3 года назад

@@vantajmnextajm2402 Yes; but the problem is, aluminium needs to get above 660C to melt. So you have just a very small line between melting the aluminium and vaporize your zinc in a blazing forge without any reliable temperature controller. Yes, it could be done without the fumes but the risk of going into the high temperatures is very real. So, if you don't have to put zinc in your alloy at home, just don't do it.

Nice paint job on that bar. I was guessing that a lot of that you used was zinc, but hard to tell on camera. I know there are tests to distinguish the two, but as long as you are having fun and just making something cool, who cares what it's made of. I made some zombie/biohazard bullion a few months ago, it was a blast to make. This is one of my favorite topics, great work.

@rjshobbies4369 4 года назад

I melted about 2lbs of blue painted shut off valves, they were made of Zinc. I can tell you the "spiderweb" was either because you overheated the zinc / lead, or because the impurities in the zinc / lead alloy (such as paint). But it's likely the first one is to blame.

What were your ratios how much lead and how much aluminum by weight and did it meet your expectations as I'm sure you had at least some loose expectations on what you were going to get?

I suggest melting the aluminum 1st, then adding the lead once that's melted. That way you can hopefully avoid overheating the lead.

@Metal_Master_YT 2 года назад

the zinc was overheating, not the lead, zinc is much more reactive than lead, and burns much easier.

Metal and cast would be proud of that alloy. Mixing the low temp metal with a higher temp melt was, well, brave.
