CDA 102
AWS: BCu-3
CDA 102 is a fluid filler metal used for brazing of ferrous and nickel-based alloys in particular steel, stainless steel and copper-nickel alloys. This alloy is typically used in furnace braze applications without the use of flux.
Available Forms
Wire, strip, engineered preforms, specialty preforms per customer specification, powder and paste.
Characteristics
CDA 102 is a free-flowing filler metal that exhibits good wetting characteristics on ferrous and nickel-based materials. Maximum strength and joint integrity are obtained where joint clearance falls within the range of 0.000in – 0.001in (0.000- 0.025mm) per side.
Properties
The properties of a brazed joint are dependent upon numerous factors including base metal properties, joint design, metallurgical interaction between the base metal and the filler metal.
