| INTERNATIONAL CLASSIFICATIONS |
AWS/ASME A5.8 BAg-5
| FEATURES & APPLICATIONS |
Low temperature joining of dissimilar metals. Excellent where tolerances and fit are not perfect.
- Super active flux coated cadmium free silver brazing alloy with 45% silver content.
- Special “Fast Flow” flux coating provides twice the base metal cleansing action of conventional silver flux coatings.
- No odors from rubberized compounds yet the flux coating is totally flexible and non-fragile.
- The only flux coated silver flux strong enough to clean oxidized stainless steel.
- Available bare as item 3149 for use with 5130 flux.
