Hot Salt Annealing

[chas442]

I am using a hot salt annealing system. I think that it works really well.
I have noticed that its not uncommon for some salt to stick to the brass. Not a problem yet. I purchased an extra container of salts when I bought the kit.
Does any one know the name of the salts and where I can get them in the Chicagoland area?
I would gladly purchase the salts from the source of the kit in Canada except the shipping is a killer.

TIA

I buy mine from “High temp tools.com”

Look under “Low temperature salts for heat treating”

Autocorrect drives me crazy sometimes. There are no spaces in the web address.

Didn’t we have a thread on this a couple months ago?

As far as sourcing your salt - any chemical supply company will have various grades. Fishersci is an example.
