F101 looped lead mold (30–70g) + 100 free loops
Code: YM/0101Related products
Product detailed description
Your Mold F101 lead mold produces leads with a cast-in fixed loop in a hexagonal pear profile. The 5 cavities have nominal casting weights of 30 / 40 / 50 / 60 / 70 g. You can use the required cavity without filling all the others. This lets you make a supply matched to your tackle and the fishing location.
The 30–70 g range bridges lighter bottom fishing and loads for increased line resistance. F101 provides several weights of the same hexagonal shape with a fixed loop; compare F86 when you need to go above 70 g.
Flat sides can reduce rolling compared with a smooth rounded lead. Actual holding depends on the slope and hardness of the bottom, current and line tension. Use the lightest load that gives the required control and keep within the casting limits of your rod and complete tackle. A mold shape alone does not guarantee a casting distance or a fixed fishing depth.
Use a Your Mold size 1 loop as the casting insert. The insert must match the cavity and its retaining groove. The buried legs anchor the loop while its exposed eye remains accessible for attaching the rig. Check seating and complete closure without force before filling the mold. Finish the cleaned casting with a rubber lead coating according to the coating manufacturer’s instructions.
This offer includes 100 free SAF size 1 universal stainless steel loops (SAFNP-100, 15 mm high, Ø 1.3 mm wire). These are a different product from the original Your Mold 7204 loop. Check the fit of the chosen insert before each casting session. No further discounts or benefits apply to this offer.

From the F101 mold to a finished lead
- Prepare a clean, completely dry mold, inserts and tools. Choose the required cavity.
- Seat the specified Your Mold size 1 loop and check complete, secure closure without force.
- Cast according to the instructions for the mold, metal and melting equipment. Keep all plastic parts away from molten metal.
- After solidification and safe cooling, remove the lead and trim the sprue.
- Check that the attachment is firmly anchored and its exposed part remains functional.
- Weigh and inspect the first casting, then test the complete rig before continuing with a larger batch.
Nominal grammes refer to one casting, not the total output of the mold. Actual weight varies with the metal and finishing. Use a suitable rig connection and check how the complete system behaves if the main line breaks. Coating and other finishing accessories are sold separately.
Casting safety
- Never pour molten metal into a damp mold. Inserts and tools must also be completely dry.
- Wear safety glasses and suitable protective gloves; use a stable, heat-resistant workplace with effective ventilation.
- Follow the instructions for the mold, metal and melting equipment. A mold temperature limit is not a recommended pouring temperature.
- Do not eat, drink or smoke while working with lead. Keep casting equipment separate from kitchen utensils and wash your hands afterwards.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
How many leads does one mold produce?
5 leads if all cavities are filled, with nominal weights of 30 / 40 / 50 / 60 / 70 g. You may cast individual cavities.
Which insert is required?
Use the specified Your Mold size 1 loop. Check its fit before casting; matching size numbers from another series do not prove interchangeability.
What is supplied?
The aluminum mold and 100 free SAF size 1 universal stainless steel loops. Further inserts and finishing accessories are sold separately.
When should I choose a different mold?
Compare F39 and F86 for another load range, body shape or attachment. Check each mold’s own insert requirements.
