Oval Cast Iron Sinker
Material: It is made of cast iron, which has high strength and weight, meeting the needs of different application scenarios.
Shape: It is oval. This shape has good hydrodynamic performance in water or other media, which can reduce resistance.
Size and Weight: The size and weight can be customized according to specific requirements. The common weight range is generally between 0.5 tons and 10 tons.
Application Fields
Marine Engineering: It is often used in offshore platforms. As part of the mooring system, it is used to fix offshore platforms, ships or other marine facilities, keeping them stable in harsh marine environments.
Fishing Sports: In fishing activities, oval cast iron sinkers also have certain applications. They can help anglers accurately cast the hook and bait to the target fishing spot. And when a fish bites the hook, their weight can make the fishhook better pierce the fish's lip, increasing the hook-up rate.
Manufacturing Process
Casting: It is usually produced by casting process. The molten cast iron is poured into a specific mold and cooled and solidified to form the required oval shape. This process can produce complex shapes and structures to meet the needs of different customers.
Welding: In some cases, welding may be required to connect different components or for repair and reinforcement. The welding process can ensure the structural integrity and strength of the cast iron sinker.
Advantages
Strength and Durability: Cast iron materials have high strength and hardness, which can withstand large tensile and compressive forces, and are not easy to deform or damage. They are suitable for long-term use in harsh environments.
Stability: The oval shape design gives it good stability in water or other media, which can reduce shaking and swinging, ensuring the connected objects maintain a stable position.
Corrosion Resistance: Through appropriate surface treatment, cast iron sinkers can have good corrosion resistance, resisting the erosion of seawater, moisture and other corrosive substances, and prolonging the service life.

What are the advantages of cast iron sinkers over other materials?
Cast iron sinkers are known for their high density, which allows them to sink quickly in water. They are also very durable and can withstand rough handling. Compared to lead sinkers, they are a more environmentally friendly option as they are non - toxic.
How do I choose the right weight of a cast iron sinker for my fishing needs?
The weight of the sinker depends on several factors such as the depth of the water you are fishing in, the type of fish you are targeting, and the strength of the current. For shallow waters with little current, a lighter sinker (e.g., 1 - 2 ounces) may be sufficient. In deeper waters or strong currents, you may need a sinker weighing 4 ounces or more.
Are cast iron sinkers suitable for all types of fishing?
Cast iron sinkers are versatile and can be used in various fishing methods including bottom fishing, surf fishing, and trolling. However, for some delicate fishing techniques like fly fishing, they may not be the best choice as they are relatively heavy and can disrupt the finesse required.
Can I paint my cast iron sinker?
Yes, you can paint a cast iron sinker. Painting can serve multiple purposes such as making it more visible in the water, which may attract certain fish species. It can also help protect the sinker from rust. Make sure to use paint that is suitable for use in water and is non - toxic.
How do I attach a cast iron sinker to my fishing line?
There are several ways to attach a cast iron sinker. You can use a sinker slide, where the sinker slides freely on the main line until it reaches a stop knot. Another option is to use a snap swivel, which allows for quick and easy attachment and detachment of the sinker. For some types of sinkers with a hole in the middle, you can thread the line through the hole and tie a knot.
Do cast iron sinkers rust easily?
Cast iron is prone to rusting when exposed to water and oxygen. However, if properly maintained, the rate of rusting can be significantly reduced. After each use, it is recommended to rinse the sinker with fresh water to remove salt or other corrosive substances, and then dry it thoroughly. Applying a rust - preventive coating can also help.
What is the typical lifespan of a cast iron sinker?
With proper care, a cast iron sinker can last for many years. If it is regularly exposed to harsh conditions like saltwater without proper maintenance, its lifespan may be shortened due to rust and corrosion. But if maintained well, it can be a long - lasting fishing accessory.
Can I use a cast iron sinker in saltwater fishing?
Yes, cast iron sinkers can be used in saltwater fishing. However, as saltwater is highly corrosive, extra care must be taken to prevent rust. Rinse the sinker with fresh water immediately after use and dry it thoroughly. Applying a rust - inhibitor specifically designed for saltwater use can also extend its life.
Are there different shapes of cast iron sinkers available?
Yes, there are various shapes of cast iron sinkers available. Common shapes include round, egg - shaped, pyramid, and bell - shaped. Each shape has its own advantages. For example, round sinkers are good for general fishing, while pyramid - shaped sinkers tend to stay put better in strong currents.
