STAY-SILV 15 Copper Brazing Alloy – 0.05 x 1/8 in – 20 in
STAY-SILV 15 phos-copper filler metal is the industry standard for air conditioning/refrigeration applications. Its melting range is useful in filling wider clearances while providing good service ductility. Conforms to the EU Reach & RoHS directive.
Features
A frequent choice for brazing copper, as copper is self-fluxing
Wide melting range allows operators to fill loose connections and “cap”, or build up around finished joint. When heated above its liquidus it will penetrate tight connections
Excellent for situations where close fit-up does not exist, and where thermal expansion and service vibration are involved
Popular brazing filler metal for HVAC and refrigeration connections
Can be used to braze brass with the use of appropriate brazing flux
Suitable for brazing low nickel, (10% maximum), copper/nickel base metals
Can be used for brazing copper-to-copper and copper-to-brass (using Stay-Silv” white brazing flux) applications
Corrosion resistance is generally similar to copper base metal, but phosphorus containing alloys should not be used if the braze is exposed to sulfur or sulfur compounds in service
Not recommended for brazing steel or other ferrous metals due to sufficient lack of joint ductility
