F27 Aluminum Mold for Norway terminal sinkers (200/300/400g)
Code: YM/0027Related products
Product detailed description
The Your Mold F27 aluminum mold produces Norway terminal sinkers weighing 200/300/400 g. It has 3 cavities; the stated weights refer to individual lead castings.
The graduated 200, 300 and 400 g set covers different loads for saltwater boat rigs. A terminal sinker is not a lure by itself: the leader and hook are assembled separately. Check all connections and the intended method of releasing a snagged sinker before lowering the rig.
Select the lightest sinker that keeps the intended rig under control. Current, drift, water depth and line diameter all affect the required weight. A heavier sinker is not automatically a better choice; respect the capacity of the rod, line, leader and every connection.
For casting, use original Your Mold size 3 stainless steel loops. These loops remain embedded in the casting; they are not swivels or removable guide pins. Check insert seating before pouring rather than choosing a part by appearance alone.
The related products offer casting tools, mold talc, modeling clay and different coating systems. Modeling clay is an optional workshop aid, not a mandatory insert for this mold. Follow each coating manufacturer’s preparation and curing instructions. Do not assume hooks, rings, inserts, paint or finished lures are included simply because they appear in an illustrative photograph.

From the F27 mold to a finished casting
- Prepare a clean, completely dry mold, inserts and tools. Select the cavity or cavities you want to use.
- Seat original Your Mold size 3 stainless steel loops in the prepared recesses. Check that both mold halves close fully and secure them without force.
- Pour according to the instructions for the mold, metal and melting equipment. Choose pouring equipment with sufficient capacity for the selected cavity and sprue.
- After the metal has fully solidified and can be handled safely, remove the casting and let it cool. Trim the sprue and check that all attachment eyes are clear and securely anchored.
- Weigh the first casting before making a batch. Finish the surface according to the coating instructions.
- Connect the finished sinker to the intended rig. Check every connection and the capacity of the complete tackle.
The weights are nominal values for lead. Alloy composition, sprue trimming and finishing can change the final result. Weigh the first casting before making a batch. Casting equipment must safely supply enough metal for a complete selected cavity, including its sprue; you do not have to fill every cavity in one cycle.

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 castings does the mold produce?
3 castings per complete filling, in the nominal lead weights 200/300/400 g. You can use individual cavities without filling the others.
Which inserts are required?
Use original Your Mold size 3 stainless steel loops. They remain embedded in the finished casting.
Is this a ready-to-fish lure?
No. It produces a sinker for a separate rig. Hooks, leaders and bait are chosen and assembled according to the fishing method.
Does the weight determine a fixed fishing depth?
No. Current, drift, line diameter, retrieve and the complete rig determine the required weight. Choose according to actual control of the setup.
Can a different metal be used?
Only use materials and working temperatures permitted by the mold and melting-equipment manufacturers. A different metal density changes casting weight; a temperature limit is not a recommended pouring temperature.
