Harris AL-BRAZE® 1070 Kit for Joining Aluminum Materials

SKU: 1070K

AL-BRAZE® ALUMINUM BRAZING KIT 

CHEMICAL COMPOSITION: 88% Al 12% Si

COMES WITH BRAZING WIRE AND FLUX

Not recommended for brazing aluminum directly to non-aluminum alloys, as the joint may become brittle. Al-Braze® is free flowing with unequaled capillary attraction, ductility and penetration. Excellent corrosion resistance.

Al-Braze 1070 is an aluminum-silicon brazing filler metal designed for flame brazing aluminum to aluminum. It is formulated to melt below the melting point of brazeable aluminum base metals and its narrow melting range provides rapid flow into the capillary. Aluminum does not change color when heated and Al-Braze 1070 wire melts at a temperature close to the aluminum base metal melting point. For this reason care should be used during heating and the base metal should be heated to brazing temperature before filler metal application. Flux should be applied to the part prior to heating. Flux will liquefy and turn “clear” close to brazing temperature and this can be a useful indicator for when to apply the 1070 wire.
