Leadwire is the starting material for buck shot production. Beside that lead wire is a product for itself. It is used in lead core production, airgun pellet production, buckshot production etc.

A melting pot with billet molds operated semi-automatically make the lead billet production very easy. Different size of billet molds are available.

Our system allows the manufacturer to produce different diameter of leadwire with the same production line. An easy change of mold allows to get different sizes.

Also semi-automatic winding system is very crucial. A not well winded leadwire will definately affect the production of leadcore, buckshot etc. very negatively. Our semi-automatic winding unit eliminates this problem.

Also extra leadwire carry cars are delivered with the system so manufacturer can stock the leadwire. Leadwire need to rest for at least 12 hours before next operation so stocking leadwire in a winded form is very beneficial.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the personal safety rules for operators dealing with lead?

People think that lead is poisonous. This is half true. It is only poisonous if lead is melted. The atmospheric evaporation pressure of lead material is higher than other metals. So it becomes more evaporated and more dangerous for human body when it is melted.

The operators must be careful about below rules;
*Don't drop water onto melted lead. Melted lead will explode.
*Use latex gloves. On it wear high heat resistant special gloves.
*Use mask to avoid breathing vapoured lead.
*Cover your hair. You can use hut, bandana or similar.
*Avoid breathing over melting pot or melted lead on the mold.
*Cover your skin to avoid melted lead touches and burnes.
*Give blood every six month to check the lead level in your body.

Note: Melted lead evaporates 4 times more than water. The atmosphere pressure of lead is very high. Avoid breathing lead particules. Lead as hard metal is not poisonous. But it is one of the most dense element. Even small piece of it is heavier than a standart metal, for example aluminum. Be careful by carrying.

What is buckshot and what are the sizes?

Lead ball over 4,00mm is called buckshot. But usually buckshot size is between 6,00mm and 9,70mm. Below chart shows most common sizes of buckshot with their weight.

Buckshot Size	Nominal Pellet Diameter	Pellet Weight
0000	.38" / 9.7 mm	87 grain / 5.67 gram
000	.36" / 9.1 mm	73 grain / 4.70 gram
00	.33" / 8.4 mm	55 grain / 3.50 gram
0	.32" / 8.1 mm	49 grain / 3.15 gram
1	.30" / 7.6 mm	44 grain / 2.80 gram
2	.27" / 6.9 mm	29 grain / 1.90 gram
3	.25" / 6.4 mm	24 grain / 1.60 gram
4	.24" / 6.0 mm	16 grain / 1.00 gram

What is the effect of antimony on leadshot production?

Is arsenic used in production of leadshot?

Leadshot is actually lead ball which has a round form. The production of leadshot can be described as getting this round form. In its nature lead material has a tendency to get round form which makes the production of leadshot easier.

In order to increase this round form effect arsenic is one of the best additives. But the usage of arsenic is very dangerous and it is poisonous. As the lead reaches over 400 centigrad degree to be melted for leadshot, the addition of arsenic takes place in a very hot liquid form. This causes evaporation of arsenic which has enourmous negative effect on human health. That's why this application is not prefered by producers.

Eventhough such negative sides are seen the leadshot makers using tower can not give up to use arsenic in their production. The leadshot producers with machine (not tower) can avoid using arsenic.
