Is it capable of melting aluminium
1809275
No, it does lead, lead melts at 400 to 900 degree s aluminium is like 2000 degrees
1809276
NO. Aluminium melts at 1220f, this pot won't get that hot. You may find out that it probably going to take a turkey fryer and a cast iron skillet to achieve the higher temperature you seek.

i'm not sure if it is or isn't aluminium, but it was strong and sturdy, very solid i don't think it would reshape upon use, it will keep it's shape

This tool will NOT melt copper wire. You need a real torch for that.This tool is only hot enough to melt low temperature solder.Harriete Estel Berman

Hi- The answer to your question is no. You can only use cast iron or pots and pans the Nuwave offers. No aluminum, because the Nuwave has to make a connection you know like a plus and minus. I ust cast iron pots and pans I like the way the cook. I hope this answers your question.

I haven't tried, but I doubt it! I am pretty sure it would melt. It is an instant read thermometer.

Yes you can, only takes a little warm fluid and it melts nice and stays liquid at this point!

Yes, and one of the best I have used. All stainless is so much healthier than heating up and drinking anything in aluminum. I have this one currently. Works anywhere. Perect!

You can't tig weld aluminum on this machine. It does not have HF ac output. It weld stainless as good as any I've used. No foot pedal of coarse, but still welds great.

Yes. I don't recommend buying this. I melted 2 of them with just normal operation of my heat.

I don't know but it does get hot enough to melt se ur softer metals. It burns as hot at regular propane torch. Just smaller which means less gas. Run good butane tho. Or ur waisting ur time

Honestly I think it could melt low temp metals. I dont know the melting point of copper. On large pieces, given some time, I do think it would melt soldering materials. I hope this helps.

It aint aluminum cuz it melted at around 300'F. Not lead, cuz toxic. My guess is some bismuth / antimony eutectic alloy - but have not tested. But the part came, and fixed my pressure cooker !

No it will not melt gold or silver. It is designed to melt lead which has a Much lower melting point than both gold or silver. You need a crucible to do that.

Probably would from my experience, but you have to worry about heat. It melts easily.

hmmm... I seriously doubt it but don't know for sure. Depends on the melting point for copper. I think this pot maxes out at 900f. It's pretty much meant for lead.

NO, it won't get that hot, you need a forge for that. Lead has a much lower melting point.

You could but you need to watch your contact time because aluminum will heat up quickly. And this tool has a lot of RPM's
