Obtainium Science and Surplus

Obtainium Science and Surplus Visit us at ObtainSurplus.com for surplus technology from the worlds of Science & industry. This simple business grew quickly during the economic hard times.

Back in 1999, Obtainium was born in a home garage, with a simple philosophy: find value in excess laboratory, test equipment, specialty electronics & industrial machinery. Our focus was to supply surplus to cost conscious businesses, institutions & individuals. We have grown substantially and continue supplying these hard-to-find products with responsive service & quick order fulfillment. In 2008

we opened The Reuseum, a retail surplus technology outlet in Garden City, Idaho. The Reuseum supplies
As Obtainium grows, we expand on our belief that all businesses have the responsibility to help make our world a better place. And to fulfill this idea, in 2012, the Company’s founder, John Schiff, established the non-profit organization: Reuseum Educational, Inc.. Reuseum Educational is a recognized 501c non-profit entity that provides workshops, materials & expertise in the support of science & technology education. By simply diverting the e-waste stream through sales and recycling, Reuseum Educational raises and distributes funds for STEM education. All of us Obtainium wish to thank our clients in helping us help others. We hope to do this important work for years to come and greatly appreciate your business.

Bismuth Lead Tin Alloy Ingot Low Melt Fusible Metal Indium Corp (New Old Stock)

Indium Corporation-Branded BiPbSn Fusible Alloy Ingot - XRF-Verified Composition, ~5 Lb, Low Melt Lens Blocking and Tube Bending Metal

One in stock: https://obtainsurplus.com/manufacturing-fabrication/bismuth-lead-tin-alloy-ingot-low-melt-fusible-metal-indium-corp-nos/

Carefully packed and ships same or next business day from our Idaho warehouse. Online since 1999. Honest equipment and straightforward service.

Condition:
Single unit available. Unused NOS, sourced from a government research facility. The ingot shows light surface scratches and minor soiling across the face consistent with storage - no structural defects. XRF analysis confirmed composition: Bi 53.40%, Pb 36.58%, Sn 9.16%, Sb 0.86% (8,651 ppm); see the included XRF photo. Weighs approximately one to two ounces under five pounds. The ingot face is embossed "in 117 / INDIUM CORPORATION OF AMERICA" - note that the XRF-confirmed composition differs from Indalloy 117, which contains indium and cadmium not detected here. Buyers should determine melting point suitability for their specific application based on the confirmed Bi-Pb-Sn-Sb composition. Photos show the specific unit you will receive.

Product Overview:
Indium Corporation-branded round ingot, approximately 3.5 inches in diameter, embossed "117" with the Indium Corporation of America mark. XRF-verified composition places this as a bismuth-lead-tin-antimony fusible alloy - not Indalloy 117. Bismuth-lead-tin alloys in this compositional range are used across optical lens fabrication, tube bending support, work-holding fixturing, thermal fuse applications, and low-temperature soldering. The high bismuth content means this alloy expands slightly upon solidification, a property that aids in gripping workpieces and filling cavities. This ingot contains lead - it is not a lead-free material.
