RCBS Lead Thermometer with Handle (RCBS part no. 81175) helps a caster or handloader nail down the actual temperature of melted lead alloy instead of guessing based on how the pot looks. RCBS designed it to read between 200 and 1000 degrees Fahrenheit, accurate to within plus or minus 1 degree, with a large-numbered dial face that’s easy to read even in a dim casting area. A 6-inch handle keeps hands further from the melt for safety, and the thermometer works with an RCBS Pro-Melt furnace or pot as well as furnaces from other manufacturers.
