Furnace Tools
Dross rakes, skimmers, scraping picks and cleaning chisels for aluminium furnaces
Overview
What it is and where it works
Hand tools for tending aluminium furnaces: dross rakes and dross skimmers to remove dross, hand scraping picks for walls and hearth, and cleaning chisels and moil points for demolition hammers. Heads are made in stainless steel, mild steel, ductile cast iron or reinforced fibreglass, in standard sizes or custom shapes that follow the furnace profile. We source complete tools or replacement heads.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you supply only the heads?
Yes, replacement heads can be made to fit your existing handles if you send the connection detail.
Which material lasts longer in the bath?
It depends on use: steel heads are robust for raking, while some non-metallic heads avoid iron pickup in the melt. We compare options against your current tool life.
