Product detailed description
Your Mold 10 cm wire shaft is a metal insert for making pilkers. Position it inside a suitable mold before pouring; it remains in the lure body after the metal solidifies. It links the end attachment points, ready for rings, hooks and swivels selected for the finished rig.
The 100 mm length is specified for molds F35 and F117. The current F35 mold for 130/200 g pilkers uses a through-wire shaft. The F117 mold for 80/100 g pilkers also uses a 100 mm shaft. For an older or different mold, compare its specified insert and actual seating.
The pack contains 50 pieces. The shaft is a consumable component: each casting retains its correctly seated shaft. It differs from a removable guide used to create an inline passage and pulled out after casting.
Selection and assembly
- Check that your mold specifies a 100 mm shaft.
- Seat the shaft, check both end eyes and confirm complete mold closure.
- Cast following the mold and melting equipment instructions, then allow safe cooling.
- Trim the sprue and inspect the anchorage and open eyes before fitting hooks and other tackle.
Apply finishes only to the cooled, trimmed casting. Keep paint out of the end eyes. Choose split rings and hooks for the particular pilker; shaft length alone does not define the strength of the complete assembly.
Safe handling and inspection
For casting, the mold, inserts and tools must be completely dry. Use safety glasses, suitable gloves, effective ventilation and a stable heat-resistant work surface. Follow the mold, metal and melting equipment instructions. Handle the casting only after it has cooled safely. Do not eat, drink or smoke when handling lead; wash your hands afterwards.
