| Brazing Filler Alloys: | |||
| Your choices are... | |||
| Aluminum Alloy Braze | Braze alloy based on an aluminum alloy composition such as aluminum-silicon alloys. | ||
| Copper Alloy Braze | Braze alloy based on copper alloy such as copper-phosphorus (Cu-P), copper-zinc (Cu-Zn), copper-tin (Cu-Sn), copper-manganese (Cu-Mn) or copper-nickel-boron (Cu-Ni-B) compositions. | ||
| Gold Alloy Braze | Braze alloy based on a gold alloy composition. | ||
| Nickel Alloy Braze | Braze alloy based on a nickel alloy composition. | ||
| Palladium Alloy Braze | Braze alloy based on a palladium alloy composition. | ||
| Silver Alloy Braze | Braze alloy based on a silver alloy composition. | ||
| Other | Other braze alloy compositions not listed here. | ||
| Search Logic: | All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches. | ||
| |||
| Vacuum Grade Braze? | Braze alloy with suitably low vapor pressure or low volatility for processing in a vacuum furnace. | ||
| Search Logic: | "Required" and "Must Not Have" criteria limit returned matches as specified. Products with optional attributes will be returned for either choice. | ||
| |||
| Cadmium Free? | Braze alloys free of cadmium additions. Cadmium is considered a health hazard. | ||
| Search Logic: | "Required" and "Must Not Have" criteria limit returned matches as specified. Products with optional attributes will be returned for either choice. | ||

| Form / Shape: | |||
| Your choices are... | |||
| Composite / Trimet | Products are composites or trimets. | ||
| Paste | Products are pastes. | ||
| Powder | Products are powders. | ||
| Preform | Products are preforms. | ||
| Strip / Sheet / Foil | Products are strips, sheets, or foil. | ||
| Solid Wire | Products are solid wires. | ||

| |||
| Flux Coated? | Brazing alloy coated with flux. Fluxes are inorganic salts or oxide mixtures used to clean and remove oxides from the metal surfaces being brazed. The flux melts and forms a protective layer that prevents further oxidation. | ||
| Search Logic: | "Required" and "Must Not Have" criteria limit returned matches as specified. Products with optional attributes will be returned for either choice. | ||
| |||
| Flux Cored Wire? | Brazing wire or rods has an innver core filled with flux. Fluxes are inorganic salts or oxide mixtures used to clean and remove oxides from the metal surfaces being brazed. The flux melts and forms a protective layer that prevents further oxidation. | ||
| Search Logic: | "Required" and "Must Not Have" criteria limit returned matches as specified. Products with optional attributes will be returned for either choice. | ||

|
| ||
| Melting Range | The range of temperatures at which products melt. | ||
| Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the limits in a "From - To" range; when both are specified, matching products will cover entire range. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
| |||
| Conductivity | The electrical conductivity of products. | ||
| Search Logic: | All matching products will have a value greater than or equal to the specified value. | ||

Standards Approval
Back to Top
|
|
| ||
| Approvals / Conformance: | |||
| Your choices are... | |||
| ABS | Products meet grade specifications from the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS). | ||
| AMS | Products meet Aerospace Materials Specifications (AMS) from the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). | ||
| ASME | Products meet standards from the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). Most ASME specifications are adopted from or are very similar to American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) specifications. | ||
| ASTM / UNS | The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) is a non-profit organization that develops and publishes voluntary standards for materials, products, systems, and services. Products that are ASTM-certified comply with design specifications for safety. The Unified Numbering System (UNS) is a specification established by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), and metal trade associations such as the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) and the Aluminum Association (AA). The UNS assigns metals and alloys a lettered prefix and a five-digit number. Welding filler alloys belong to the UNS W series. | ||
| AWS | Products meet specifications and classifications from the American Welding Society (AWS). | ||
| BS | Products meet specifications from the British Standards Institute (BSI). | ||
| CWB | Products meet specifications from the Canadian Welding Bureau (CWB). | ||
| DIN | Products meet DIN standards for metal fillers. DIN is an acronym for Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN), a German national organization for standardization. | ||
| DNV | Products meet metallurgical specifications for process controls and manufacturing capabilities from Norway’s Det Norske Veritas (DNV). These specifications are contained in DNV’s Approval of Metallic Materials (AMM) qualification system. DNV is accredited by the European Union (EU) as a Notified Body for product safety testing and certification. | ||
| ISO / EN | Products meet International Standards Organization (ISO) or EURONORM (EN) standards for filler alloys and welding consumables. ISO is a worldwide federation of national standards organizations from over 100 countries. ISO's mission is to facilitate the international exchange of goods and services, and to foster cooperation in the spheres of intellectual, technological, and economic activity. | ||
| JIS | Products meet Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS) for filler alloys and welding consumables. | ||
| Lloyd's | Products meet grade specifications from Lloyd's Register of Shipping. | ||
| MIL-SPEC | Products meet U.S. military specifications (MIL-SPEC). | ||
| RWMA | Products meet class requirements from the Resistance Welding Manufacturers Association (RWMA). | ||
| Other | Other unlisted government, agency, or company specifications. | ||
