No. Send it to me for disposal.
Nickel Babbitt contains 85% tin, 5% to 10% each of antimony and copper, and a small amount of nickel.
It makes a great casting alloy mixed with lead.

Use the search engine on here (white box in the upper right corner). This subject has been discussed and cussed MANY times. All the answers are there for you.
Didn't know about the search engine.
yup it works great as tin. Not enough nickle in it to do much.
Be careful with that search box , you can get trapped in their , for months . You will find answers to questions you didn't realize you had . The knowledge on this site is unbelievable ,sort of a interactive library .
Actually, there are 2 Searchable Archive Databases:The thing searches the CB archives also and there is tons of info there. It is vastly improved from what it was when you joined back in 2013.
