White metal, also known as "babbitt metal," is an alloy typically composed of metals such as tin, lead, antimony, and bismuth.
It is characterized by its low melting point, making it suitable for casting and shaping metal easily. Additionally, it has slippery properties, making it useful as a lubricating material, aiding in reducing friction in mechanical components such as bearings.
It is primarily used in components like bearings for machinery such as engines, turbines, and generators. Furthermore, its low melting point and fluidity make it suitable for pouring as an alloy to reproduce intricate shapes and details, used in manufacturing metal models and crafts.
