Both Stay Brite and Stay Brite 8 produce an overall component with greater strength than a brazed component whose base metals are weakened by annealment from high brazing heat. Stay Brite solders bond with all of the ferrous and nonferrous alloys. Joints soldered with Stay Brite solders exhibit considerably higher than necessary elongation for sound, dissimilar metal joints and vibration applications.
Harris® Solder Wire, 1 lb Net Content, Spool Container, Composition: 94% Sn, 6% Ag, 1/8 in Wire Diameter, 430 to 535 deg F Melting Point
- Engineered to provide strong, ductile connections on copper, brass, steel and stainless steel
- Silver color is a good color match to stainless steel
- The higher silver content provides a melting range versus a single temperature melting point
- The melting range makes it suitable for soldering connections with a wider clearance
- The low temperature characteristic promotes capillary flow with less base metal distortion and oxidation
- Often selected for residential HVAC tube connections as an alternative to brazing
- Meets NSF/ANSI Standard 51 for food equipment materials
- Conforms to the EU Reach & RoHS directive
