Item Details

  • Harris® Stay-Silv® 5 phos-copper brazing alloy filler metal .050" x 1/8" flat x 36" long rod packed in a 25 lb. box is a medium range filler metal that is well suited where close fit-up cannot be maintained. This filler metal is somewhat more ductile than Harris® 0 or Stay-Silv® 2. It is designed for copper-to-copper applications, but also can be used on copper to low zinc brass by applying Stay-Silv® white brazing flux. Stay-Silv® 5 flows rapidly when heated quickly to its liquidus. This allows penetration into tight clearance connections. With slower heating, the filler metal melting range provides the ability to fill wider gaps. Stay-Silv® 5 is often chosen as an economical alternative to higher silver content filler metals for copper and brass applications. Conforms to the EU Reach and RoHS directive.

Features

  • Medium-range brazing alloy for copper-to-copper applications
  • A frequent choice for brazing copper as it is self-fluxing
  • Well suited where close fit-up cannot be maintained
  • Wide melting range allows the operator to fill loose connections and fill wider gaps
  • When heated quickly to its liquidus, allows penetration into tight clearance connections
  • Use Stay-Silv® white flux to braze low-zinc brass
  • The phosphorus content promotes formation of a low ductility intermetallic with the base metal
  • Corrosion resistance is generally similar to the copper base metal, but due to its phosphorus content should not be used if the braze is exposed to sulfur or sulfur compounds in service
  • Not recommended for brazing steel or other ferrous base metals
  • Conforms to the EU Reach and RoHS directive

Specifications

  • AWS A5.8 BCuP-3
  • ASME SFA 5.8 BCuP-3

Applications

  • Medium-range alloy used to braze copper, copper and brass-to-copper and copper-to-low zinc brass.
  • It can bridge gaps where close fit-up cannot be maintained.

Caution

  • Before use, read and understand the manufacturer's instructions, Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and your employer's safety practices
  • Keep your head out of fumes
  • Use enough ventilation, exhaust at the flame, or heat source, to keep fumes and gases from your breathing zone and the general area
  • Wear correct eye, ear, and body protection
