Melting Point: 1190° F 645° C Flow Point: 1275° F 690° C
Application: SILVALOY 18M is used for joining of copper and copper alloys, such as brass or bronze. It should not be used on ferrous metals or alloys containing more than 10% nickel due to the formation of brittle intermetallic phosphide compounds.
Melting Point: 1315° F 715° C Flow Point: 1500° F 815° C
Application: SILVALOY A20 can be used in a wide variety of applications but is infrequently used because of its relatively high melting point. It is an excellent choice when simultaneously brazing and heat treating carbon steel because of the close temperature match. It is also widely used on yellow brass assemblies because of the close color match.
