Item Details:
Stay-Silv® 15 phos-copper brazing alloy filler metal .050" x 1/8" flat x 20" long rod 8-stick mini-pack tube is the industry standard for air conditioning/refrigeration applications. Stay-Silv® 15 can also braze copper-to-copper and copper-to-brass with an appropriate brazing flux. Its melting range is useful in filling wider clearances where close fit-up does not exist and where agitation and vibration in service is involved, while providing good service ductility. Conforms to the EU Reach and RoHS directive.
Features
- Standard in the industry brazing alloy.
- Good strength and ductility
- Frequent choice for brazing copper - copper is self-fluxing.
- Its wide melting range allows operators to fill loose connections and "cap" or build up around finished joints.
- Excellent for situations where close fit-up does not exist, and thermal expansion and service vibration are involved.
- Popular brazing filler metal for HVAC and refrigeration connections.
- Can braze brass using Stay-Silv® white brazing flux.
- Suitable for brazing low nickel (10%) and copper/nickel base metals.
