MATERIAL TO BE WELDED
This high quality copper-phosphorous alloy rod has a low melting point and is ideal for brazing joints in non ferrous metals, such as copper, brass, and bronze. It is self fluxing on copper but flux is required when used to join brass, or brass to copper. Not suitable to braze iron-containing materials like carbon or stainless steels or nickel containing materials.
