[QUOTE="ok-22shooter, post: 4220320, member: 42477"] not a liner but a linear solenoid is what I am looking for. Will be glad to post picks and parts as this progresses. I had read that the mica band heaters can play havoc with arc-fault breakers. This pot has not been used in years and probably absorbed moisture. Arc-fault is seeing a bit of leakage to ground I think. Hooked up 12 vdc charger to heater and got lead up to 90 degrees trying to drive off moisture. didn't work. now have 24 vdc power supply. heater band will be hotter than lead so maybe get it to around 200 and drive off moisture. I will not be doing a lot of casting at the house. most at a friends shop. just trying to get lead out of pot so valve rod moves up and down to see how much force is needed for a solenoid. if this gets to be an issue at the house, I may put in 20 amp breaker into garage.
