It is safe from melting this. Molds of graphite have less than 0.1% ash and keep metals clean.<\/p>\n<p>They don\u2019t bend or break easily. You can literally pour metal in, let it cool, and pop it out! They are strong, will last a long time, and make for great molds for many uses.

The good news is you can make things so tiny and detailed you could make tiny, precise parts like turbine blades. The mold cools and metal fills it.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%C2%B7_Sand_Casting_Molds\"><\/span><b>-\u00a0<\/b><strong><b>Sand Casting Molds<\/b><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A mold is created by filling sand around a shape.
