Silver Braze 25Sn2
Silver Braze 25Sn2 Tehcnical Data
Uses
The principal uses of Silver Braze 25Sn2 filler metal are for joining copper, brass, nickel-silver, bronze, steel and stainless steel.
Brazing Characteristics
Silver Braze 25Sn2 is a cadmium-free, low silver, intermediate temperature brazing filler metal. The long melting range of this filler metal is useful when wide gap joints are being brazed. Product shows good wicking. Flux is recommended for use with this filler metal. The oprtimal brazing range for Silver Braze 25Sn2 is 1435-1600F (780-870C)
Properties of Brazed Joints
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. Silver Braze 25Sn2 butt joints have been brazed and tested for tensile strength at room temperature, on the below metals and exhibited the following results:
| Tensile Strength (lbs/in2) | |
| 1020 Carbon Steel | 73,400 |
| 1095 Carbon Steel | 62,500 |
| 304 Stainless Steel | 60,500 |
Specifications
Silver Braze 25Sn2 conforms to American Welding Society (AWS) A5.8/A5.8M BAg-37
Available Forms
Silver Braze 25Sn2 is available in wire, strip, engineered preforms, specialty preforms per customer specification, powder and paste.
Notes
Silver Braze 25 Sn2 is typically used for joints not requiring high impact strength nor ductility. This brazing alloy is a good alternative to cadmium-containing brazes.
