Harris Safety-Silv 56% 1/16 Silver Solder Brazing Alloy 1 Troy Ounce, 75310 5631

Absolutely heavenly in repair food production machines copper pipes and fittings for hot water.

Works great, the price was right and worked as described!

I love this silver brazing rod it works great. I used Harris SSWF1 Stay Silv Brazing Flux with it.

Just to let everyone know, the picture is of Sfety-Silv 55, but the description is correct, it was Safety-Silv 56 that was delivered.

Overpriced, but flows like butter on copper with an acetylene torch.

You get what they say. Others will cheat you on amount of silver in the silver braze.

I used this solder to repair a stainless steel double boiler. The four spot welds that attached the handle broke. This solder is very strong. This is the first time I have used this type of solder. Although I have some experience soldering electrical and plumbing projects, this is considerably more difficult. I suggest that a first time user practice on a repair where the final appearance is not critical. There are good tutorial videos on youtube.

Item as described.

This is the problem solve braze filler for joining many metals. It flows like water, almost being eutectic. And wets easily thanks to the 56% Ag. Yes, pricey but this isnt for making fillets, it is for flowing into tiny joints and acting as a solder. Been using this type and brand for 25+ years. Just cannot justify the gamble with off brands. I dont go through much, this troy ounce will last at least 10 years unless Lady Luck throws more high dollar miracle jobs in my reach. It is easy to use..joints need 5 to 10 thousandths of clearance. Use Harris flux, white for most and black for stainless. Either GTAW or oxyacetylene with just a frogs hair of reducing flame. Throw the heat on the larger of the side of the joint, then touch the filler to the smaller part. When its hot enough, it will flow like magic. The joint is a hint golden which to me is pure beauty. Very tarnish resistant except to halogen salts or sulfur compounds. Proper joints will just show a line.

This works just great for welding bandsaw blades together
