Lee Precision High Speed Melter

The Lee Precision High Speed Melter is a dedicated lead melting furnace engineered for ammunition reloaders who process cast bullets in volume. This 500-watt AC electric melter delivers rapid melt times—reaching full capacity in less than 15 minutes—making it the preferred choice for operators maintaining consistent ammunition supply for duty, training, or competition shooting.

Infinite heat control mirrors the precision found on Lee's larger Product Pot, allowing fine adjustment of melt temperature to optimize metal flow and casting quality. The crucible opening measures 2.9 inches with 2-inch depth, accommodating standard 4-cavity molds and handling batch sizes up to 4 pounds of lead per cycle. This capacity-to-speed ratio means fewer melting cycles per reloading session, reducing bench time while maintaining thermal consistency across multiple casting runs. The compact footprint (6.8 × 4.5 × 8.1 inches) fits standard reloading benches without monopolizing workspace.

High-volume reloaders—whether LEOs managing duty ammunition, competitive shooters stretching budgets through component reuse, or training coordinators supporting unit ammunition programs—rely on the High Speed Melter to bridge the gap between cost-effective cast-bullet reloading and production schedules that demand rapid turnaround. The combination of fast melt times and temperature control eliminates the unpredictability of open-pot casting, yielding uniform bullet hardness and dimensional consistency critical to reliable ballistic performance.

Lee Precision's melting equipment occupies a proven position in the reloading market for operators prioritizing equipment reliability over automation. The High Speed Melter's straightforward design—powered furnace with manual temperature control—remains serviceable and repeatable across extended use cycles, a preference among serious handloaders who value predictable performance and component compatibility over complex electronics.
