I have a few hundred pounds of pure lead along with some pure tin. I would like to alloy in enough antimony to get to 15 to 16 BHN. I can purchase the antimony from Rotometals, but melting it is where my question arises. The melting point for antimony is about 1100 degrees. I know that my casting furnace won't be satisfactory for this purpose. Can anyone tell me a method for melting antimony so that it can be added to my lead and tin alloy?
