Just having a clear out in my shed, under the bench i found a pile of "Tandem" Special alloy bars, made by the Eyre smelting co ltc of Merton abbey London, Im pretty sure from a quick google that they are a Lead,Tin, Zinc alloy used for wire rope termination. Got them out of a school clear out years ago though lord knows why they had them.
Also some smaller plain bars about 5" long by 3/4 wide stamped with 21/30/82, think these might be some form of type metal?
Anyone know if any of these are of any use today, Or does anyone have any use for them?
