Silver solder 0.5mm wire is a cadmium free silver brazing filler metal. It combines a low brazing temperature with a short melting range. this is very free flowing and produces neat joints with small fillets. These characteristics make it an excellent general-purpose silver brazing filler metal. In many countries it is accepted as the best cadmium-free alternative to the low-melting cadmium containing filler metals. For example, it is used as a substitute for alloys such as Easy-flo? and Easy-flo? No.2.
Joints made with this wire are suitable for seawater applications, being resistant to dezincification. The optimum joint gap for this filler metal at brazing temperature is normally 0.05-0.15mm.
 

Product uses: can be used to join all the common engineering materials (excluding aluminium) such as copper, copper alloys (including, brasses, bronzes, un metal, nickel silvers, aluminium bronze, copper nickel), steels including, mild, carbon, tool steel, stainless steels, low alloy steel), tungsten carbide and PCD segments. On large or difficult to wet tungsten carbide pieces specialised silver brazing filler metals containing nickel / manganese are often preferred.

Conditions for use: This filler metal is mainly used for brazing in air with a flux. In most cases Easy-flo? flux can be used in conjunction with this silver solder wire. However, flux selection is application dependent. Please refer to JM technical department or flux product datasheets before selecting a flux.
