Silver Solder 965 Coil

500g Coil WELDbraze Silver Solder 965 - Sn: 96.5% (Tin) Ag: 3.5% (Silver) WELDbraze Silver Solder 965 Coil is a tin/silver eutectic solder which has the highest strength of all soft solders. Due to it's high strength, good elecctrical and thermal conductivity, non toxicity (lead, zinc and cadmium free) and also the fact that it remains bright and shiny, make 965 Solder the most universal of soft solders. 965 Solder is used for the joining and repair of copper, bronze, brass, nickel, monel, steel, stainless steel, pewter, chrome plate, metal sculpture, model making, costume jewellry and or a combination of metals with the exception of aluminium and magnesium. It is used in the manufacture and repair of refrigeration, air conditioning, heating, surgical and food equipment and for reliable electrical connections subject to high service stresses and temperatures. 965 Solder is often preferable due to its much lower melting point than silver brazing alloys, which eliminates the need for excessive heating during joining. This is a non-toxic solder. Features and Benefits: Highest strength (soft) Lead, zinc and cadmium free Non-toxic solder for electrical, surgical and food equipment applications Procedure for Soldering: 1. Thoroughly clean all areas to be joined of foreign material. 2. Apply 965 Soldering Flux to the work area. 3. Heat the work surfaces indirectly by the use of a soldering iron or by the use of a soft gas flame, such a s LPG. 4. Do not overheat. 5. Melt off small amount of alloy and play the flame onto the solder until it flows into the joint and bonds. 6. Continue until joint is complete. 7. Remove all flux residues with water.
