Description
Lucas-Milhaupt 95060 Sil-Fos 5 Silver-Copper-Phosphorus Alloy
28 Sticks/Tube
Sil-Fos 5 is a silver-copper-phosphorus alloy for copper-copper brazing but can also be used to join brass with an appropriate flux (e.g. Handy Flux, Ultra Flux). It is a more cost effective Ag-Cu-P alloy, though it does not penetrate deep joints easily.
Features
- Joins CU to CU (phosphorus serves as flux)
- Joins CU to Brass (flux is recommended)
- Lower cost alternative to higher silver content Ag-Cu-P alloys
- Medium flow
- Made in USA
Typical Industry Applications:
HVAC/R refrigerant systems, air conditioning coils, evaporator coils
