OVERVIEW

High-Performance 45% Silver Brazing Rods

For professionals in HVAC, plumbing, and industrial maintenance, the 45% Silver Flux-Coated Brazing Rod (1.6mm) offers a superior solution for joining diverse metals. This high-quality alloy is engineered to provide excellent flow characteristics and high joint strength, making it a staple in any welder's toolkit. The 1.6mm diameter is perfectly sized for general repair work and fabrication where precision is required.

One of the standout features of this product is its flux coating. Traditional brazing often requires the messy and time-consuming application of a separate flux paste to prevent oxidation and ensure proper wetting. With these rods, the flux is applied directly to the wire, ensuring a consistent amount of flux is delivered exactly where it is needed as the rod melts. This results in cleaner joints, reduced preparation time, and less post-braze cleaning.

Versatile Applications

Whether you are repairing a copper line, joining stainless steel to brass, or fabricating custom steel components, this 45% silver alloy delivers reliable results. Its high silver content provides excellent ductility and corrosion resistance, ensuring that your repairs withstand the test of time and environmental stress.

  • Convenience: Ready to use out of the box with no separate flux pot required.
  • Strength: Creates strong, leak-proof bonds suitable for pressurized systems.
  • Versatility: Compatible with most ferrous and non-ferrous metals (excluding aluminum and magnesium).

FAQ

These rods contain 45% silver, which provides excellent flow and strength.

No, the rod is flux-coated, so separate flux is generally not required unless the base metal is heavily oxidized.

It is suitable for joining copper, brass, bronze, steel, and stainless steel. It is not for use on aluminum or magnesium.

The rod diameter is 1.6mm (approximately 1/16 inch).

Yes, 45% silver is a standard alloy for high-quality HVAC and refrigeration brazing.

Flux-coated rods save time and mess by eliminating the need to brush on paste flux, ensuring the right amount of flux is applied as you braze.

Most modern 45% silver alloys are Cadmium-free for safety, but please refer to the specific package safety data sheet to confirm.

Oxy-Acetylene is most commonly used for silver brazing to achieve the necessary heat quickly, though Oxy-Propane can also be used.
