Introduction

Copflo (10%) is a high temperature, high strength corrosion resistant nickel brazing alloy that is primarily used for the joining of steel to steel or carbide to steel. Due to the high flow point, it is recommend the use of flux. Because of the zinc content, it is recommended that the heat cycle is kept to a minimum to prevent any vaporizing of the zinc.

Copflo 10% can be used for or brazing tungsten carbides, copper alloys, nickel alloys, stainless steels, carbon steels, and cast iron. Excellent color match to stainless steel. A superior alternative in terms of color match, joint strength and machinability. Copflo nickel brazing rod is a low cost alternative to silver brazing alloys.

Copflo - Suitable to Braze or Weld

Copper alloys, nickel alloys, cast iron, stainless steel and steel.

Uses for Copflo

  • Brazing or oxyacetylene welding of steel or cast iron where a good colour match is required;
  • Building up or overlaying worn parts such as gear teeth, bearings and valve seats;
  • Brazing tungsten carbites, nickel alloys, copper alloys, stainless steel and carbon steels.

Copflo Advantages

  • High strength
  • Low residual stress
  • Easy machinability
  • Less susceptible to cracking

C773 - Low fuming Bronze (10%)

  • Minimizes distortion and thermal stress
  • Soft and ductile weld deposits
  • Welding or filler joint are made at lower temperature than gas or arc welding
