{"product_id":"3-steel-casting-skimmer-made-in-usa","title":"3\" Steel Casting Skimmer – Made in USA","description":"\u003cp\u003eZipMetals 3‑Inch Steel Casting Skimmer is a durable, heavy‑duty tool designed for bullet casting, lead smelting, ingot pouring, and general metal casting applications. Built from thick 13‑gauge steel, this skimmer provides the strength and reliability needed for working with molten alloys, while the perforated 3‑inch bowl—engineered with approximately 1\/4‑inch holes—allows clean metal to drain back into the pot as it captures dross, oxidation, and impurities from the surface of the melt. The long steel handle offers excellent reach and control, and the rounded hanging hook makes storage simple between casting sessions. Whether you’re casting bullets, cleaning your melt pot, or pouring ingots, this USA‑made skimmer delivers dependable performance in real casting environments. Minor fabrication marks may be present; a quick cleaning before first use ensures a clean, contamination‑free setup.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ZipMetals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44293588353090,"sku":"RSP-Skimmer 3","price":27.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/9936\/1346\/files\/3inch_skimmer_-_main_black.png?v=1784650016","url":"https:\/\/zipmetals.com\/products\/3-steel-casting-skimmer-made-in-usa","provider":"ZipMetals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
