    The Facts
    This sample is ideal for fun collectors on the cheap or those conducting experiments.
    •Fields metal is a silvery-white metallic low melting metal.
    •A fusible alloy that becomes liquid at approximately 62 °C (144 °F).
    •It is named after its inventor, Simon Quellen Field.
    •It is a eutectic alloy of bismuth, indium, and tin, 32.5% Bi, 51% In, 16.5% Sn.
    •Field's metal can be melted in hot water.
    • Field's metal is expensive, due to the price of indium, which makes up over half its mass. However, as it contains neither lead nor cadmium, it is a less toxic alternative to Wood's metal (another low melting alloy).
    •Used for die casting and rapid prototyping.
    This is high quality yet cheap affordable Low melting alloy.
    Safety / Caution
    •Keep out of reach from children!
    Remember that it is 144 degrees HOT when liquid when you are handling it.
