jcool3 Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 I'm making a custom silicone mold for pouring lead jig. Need pull pin about 1/8 to 3/16 in diameter. What is a good material to use for the pull pin. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasilofchrisn Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 Are you taking pull pins like this one? If so go to any welding supply shop and buy some tig welding rod. Cost should be 50 cents or less for a 3' rod. They make them in aluminum stainless and carbon steel that usually has a copper coating to it. They come in a range of diameters and are easily cut with heavy duty wire cutters. If you mean a base hole pin like this one? Then my understanding is that he Teflon pins are the way to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
