Flux Coated, Nickel-Silver, Low Fuming Brazing Rod ®

Xuper 16 XFC

BRAZING • No prepatory fluxing required • Excellent replacement for expensive silver brazing alloys • Easily machinable • Excellent corrosion resistance • Joins base metals at lower temperatures than gas or arc welding • Minimizes thermal stress and distortion with less cracking • High strength fillets

DESCRIPTION:

WELDING PARAMETERS:

Xuper 16 XFC is a nickel - containing flexible flux coated bronze brazing rod, commonly called nickel silver. 16 XFC is pre-flux coated with the correct amount of flux so there is no preparatory fluxing required.

Preparation: The base metal surfaces to be brazed must be clean and free of all dirt, oil, grease and oxides such as rust.

Xuper 16 XFC is an excellent replacement for high cost silver brazing alloys when higher brazing temperatures are acceptable.

16 XFC is a blue colored flexible flux coated brazing rod.

Available in 18” lenghts in 1/8’’ diameter 11 lb. packs and 3/32” diameter 11 lb. packs.

Finishing: All the corrosive flux residue must be removed after brazing. Rinse with water while the parts are still warm, or rinse with hot water.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS: For brazing tungsten carbide, stainless steel, carbon steels, nickel alloys, and cast iron. Building-up overlaying worn parts such as gear teeth, bearings and valve seats. Suitable for tubular structures.
