050806011908 There are various products on the market which can be used to make a cast of a gun chamber. To be certain that the product we are offering you is the best and most practical, we contacted the basic manufacturer. They recommended Cerrosafe because of its unique features. Unlike Woodsmetal which swells upon cooling and cannot be removed from a gun chamber, Cerrosafe shrinks during the first 30 minutes of cooling and then at the end of an hour, is EXACTLY chamber size. At the end of 200 hours it will have expanded approximately .0025". This factor is well known by all toolmakers and they will take it into consideration when making dies or reamers or gauges from your cast - if you will tell them the cast is of Cerrosafe. Cerrosafe melts between 158° - 190° F. It should be melted in a clean, iron ladle. Source of heat should be removed as soon as the alloy is completely melted, at which time it is ready to pour. The solidified casting should be removed from the chamber before, or when, it cools to room temperature. If allowed to remain in the mold over an hour, it will grip the chamber walls and be difficult to remove. Clean the chamber of the rifle thoroughly, then plug the bore immediately ahead of the throat with a small rag - but not so tightly it cannot be driven out. If possible, pour the molten Cerrosafe through a small tube into the bottom of the cast, gradually removing the tube as the chamber fills. If the barrel is cold, warm it to room temperature or above before making the cast. When cooled, remove from chamber, using a rod or dowel from the muzzle end of the gun.

Reliable and Reusable Casting Solution for Your Firearm Needs

Introducing the CERROSAFE® CHAMBER CASTING ALLOY from BROWNELLS, designed for precision and durability in creating casts of gun chambers.

Why Choose Cerrosafe?

There are various products available for making casts of gun chambers, but Cerrosafe stands out due to its unique properties:

  • Non-Swelling: Unlike Woodsmetal, which swells upon cooling, Cerrosafe shrinks during the initial 30 minutes of cooling.
  • Exact Chamber Size: After one hour, the cast is exactly the size of the chamber, ensuring accuracy.
  • Controlled Expansion: After 200 hours, it will expand approximately .0025", a factor well-known by toolmakers.

Usage Instructions

Cerrosafe melts between 158° - 190° F and should be melted in a clean, iron ladle. Once fully melted, remove the heat source and it's ready to pour.

To ensure optimal results:

  • Remove the solidified casting from the chamber before it cools to room temperature to avoid it gripping the chamber walls.
  • Clean the chamber thoroughly and plug the bore with a small rag, ensuring it can be easily removed.
  • If possible, pour the molten Cerrosafe through a small tube into the bottom of the cast.
  • Warm the barrel to room temperature if it’s cold before making the cast.

Not recommended

Brownells USA Be careful 21/09/2018

Follow the directions exactly, waited half an hour then proceeded to destroy a cleaning rod trying to remove it from the chamber. I'll have to heat it with a heat gun to remove it from the chamber and buy a new Dewey rod. Not sure exactly what went wrong. I'm hesitant to try it again.

Brownells USA Works as advertised 09/05/2011

Following directions is a must with this. If you get is stuck, put the gun in an oven at 200 degrees. Stuff comes right out.
