Abstract
Apparatus for constricting a jet of liquid metal at the outlet of the orifice of a nozzle. The jet is constricted due to the provision of a winding which surrounds the discharge end of the nozzle, and a conductive cylindrical screen which extends into the winding. The apparatus can be used to constrict streams of molten steel, aluminum, copper or copper or aluminum alloys preparatory to flow of molten metal through a joint between two conduits which are not sealingly connected to each other or for the making of wire or small-diameter billets.
