LOW MELT ALLOYS or FUSIBLE ALLOYS

What are Fusible Alloys?

Alloys containing bismuth, other elements are lead, tin cadmium and indium
Fusible alloys can expand by 3.3% volume when setting from liquid to solid
Fusible alloys have unusually low melting temperatures

Common Uses for Fusible Alloys

Work holding: tube and pipe bending, aircraft applications
Medical Field: blocking for radiation therapy
Molds: dental application, plaster, plastics and encapsulating
Solder: safety devices used in fire protection equipment
Transportation: plugs in compressed gas tanks for large trucks

Welcome to Bolton Metal Products!
formerly Cerro Metal Products Co.

Bolton Metal Products acquired Cerro Alloys from Cerro Metal Products, who was the innovative founder of fusible alloys. Bolton continues to produce low melt alloys under the Bolton name. We are a company with nearly 75 years of manufacturing history and a great reputation for services and product development.

We are a ISO 9001:2000 certified manufacturer and distributor of bismuth based low melting point alloys, also known as fusible alloys. We have hundreds of alloys available in various compositions with melting points from 117-520 ^oF to meet specific customer requirements. Alloys are available in cakes, pellets, wire, rod, ingots and buttons. Bolton Alloys are used in a variety of applications including tube and pipe bending, work holding during machining, fuses, solder, proof casting, radiation therapy, safety devices, molds and patterns.

Our applications and markets have a range from aircraft industries to dental, transportation and medical market. The fire protection equipment has always been a large part of low melt technology.

For those interested in custom alloys, Bolton has approximately 100 different fusible alloys which can be developed to our customer requirements.
