For many years the standard of the industry, the 15% silver alloy has proven its value. This filler metal is excellent for situations in which close fit-up does not exist and where thermal expansion and service vibration are involved.
Harris® Brazing Alloy, 1/8 in Diameter, 20 in Length, 1300 to 1500 deg F, Composition: 80% Copper, 5% Phosphorus, 15% Silver
| Composition | 80% Copper, 5% Phosphorus, 15% Silver |
| Temperature Rating | 1300 to 1500 deg F |
| Diameter | 1/8" sq. (3.18mm sq.) |
| Length | 20 in |
- Popular choice for copper brazing of air conditioning and refrigeration connections
- Flows into tight connections when heated above its liquidus temperature
- Excellent for situations where close fit-up does not exist and where thermal expansion and service vibration are involved
- Wide melting range allows the operator to fill loose connections
- Recommended joint clearance of 0.003" - 0.006" (0.08mm - 0.15mm)
- Use STAY-SILV® white flux to braze brass or copper-to-brass
- 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
