The interface where two streams of metal come together in the but do not fuse properly, often due to premature cooling of the metal in the mold. A cold shut may also describe a hole or void in a caused by premature cooling (Rome, Richard, and Hamish Young. 2003. Fine Art Metal Casting: An Illustrated Guide to Mould Making and Lost Wax Processes. London: Robert Hale., 303). The cooled metal edges will be rounded in profile.
