Harris 15620F1 15 Silver Phos-Copper Brazing Alloy Rods .05" x 1/8" x 20 AWS A5.8 BCuP-5

DETAILS

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 popular choice for copper brazing of air conditioning and refrigeration connections
• Flows into tight connections when heated above its liquidus temperature
• The wide melting range allows operators to fill loose connections and cap or build-up around the finished joints. When heated above its liquidus it will penetrate tight connections.
• Popular brazing filler metal for HVAC and refrigeration connections
• Recommended joint clearance of 0.003 in. - 0.006 in. (0.08 mm - 0.15 mm)
• Flux is not required for copper brazing as it is self-fluxing. For brazing brass or copper-to-brass Stay-Silv white flux is suitable for most applications. Harris Eco Smart boric acid-free flux, powder or paste, is an excellent choice to promote sound brazed assemblies
• Corrosion resistance is generally similar to the copper base metal, but phosphorus-containing alloys, including Stay-Silv 15, 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
• Suitable for brazing low nickel (10% maximum) copper/nickel base metals
• Conforms to the EU Reach & RoHS directive
