Nelyrho Graphite Crucible 6KG (700ml) with Pouring Spout — Silicon Carbide High-Temp Durability

The Nelyrho 6KG Graphite Crucible with pouring spout is a heavy‑duty silicon carbide crucible built to melt and pour non‑ferrous metals safely and reliably in hobbyist and small workshop furnaces.

Designed for metalworkers, jewellers, and DIY foundry projects, this crucible combines silicon carbide graphite's high thermal resistance with a built‑in spout to make melting and casting aluminium, copper, brass, silver, and gold more controlled. Sized to handle roughly 6 kilograms (about 700 ml) of metal, its sturdy construction tolerates high temperatures and repeated use in common melting systems such as propane or gas furnaces, kilns, and coal stoves.

How hot can this crucible handle and what metals is it compatible with?

The crucible is made from silicon carbide graphite and withstands extreme temperatures up to around 1800°C (3272°F). That thermal tolerance covers the melting points of most non‑ferrous metals used in small‑scale foundry work.

• Max temperature: approximately 1800°C (3272°F).
• Suitable metals: aluminium, copper, brass, silver, gold and other non‑ferrous alloys.
• Not recommended for extended use with reactive ferrous metals without specialist linings.

How does the pouring spout improve safety and precision?

The integrated pouring spout channels molten metal into a controlled stream to reduce splashes and accidental spills during transfers. It lets you aim into moulds or ingots with less fumbling, lowering the chance of burns and material loss.

• Spout shapes the molten flow for accurate pouring into small moulds.
• Reduces splashing compared with straight‑rim crucibles.
• Makes ladling unnecessary for many small pours, streamlining operations.

What are the size, capacity and durability features I should expect?

This crucible is a compact workhorse: roughly 5.9 inches tall by 4.7 inches wide with an approximate 700 ml capacity, commonly referenced as a 6KG crucible. Its silicon carbide graphite composition increases resistance to thermal shock and wear compared with basic clay crucibles.

• Dimensions: about 5.9" height and 4.7" width for easy handling and furnace fit.
• Capacity: ~700 ml (marketed as 6KG capacity measure for typical metal loads).
• Construction: heavy‑duty silicon carbide graphite for improved life span.

Which melting systems and workflows is this crucible compatible with?

The crucible works across a range of common hobby and small workshop heating systems, including propane and gas melting furnaces, kilns, ovens, and coal stoves. Its design supports melting, casting, and refining workflows used by hobbyists and small‑scale jewellers.

• Compatible with propane melting furnaces, gas furnaces and kilns.
• Suitable for ovens and coal stoves rated for metal melting.
• Useful for smelting, casting, refining and small production runs.

Who is this for: The Nelyrho 6KG Graphite Crucible is aimed at hobby metalworkers, independent jewellers, small foundries and maker‑spaces that need a compact, durable crucible for non‑ferrous metals. If you melt and cast metals at the bench level or in a small workshop and want a crucible with better thermal durability and a safer, more accurate pouring option, this model fits those needs. For industrial, large‑scale ferrous casting or chemically reactive melts, consider crucibles and linings specifically designed for those applications.
