SafraBraze® SAB-56 2.5mm Silver Brazing Rod - Cadmium Free
SafraBraze® SAB-56 2.5mm is a premium 56% silver, cadmium-free brazing alloy supplied as a bare rod without flux coating.
The 2.5mm diameter is suitable for medium to heavier brazing applications where a greater volume of filler metal is required.
This size allows faster deposition than smaller diameters while maintaining the excellent flow, wetting and capillary characteristics expected
from a high-silver brazing alloy. It is suitable for larger fittings, heavier components, general fabrication and repair applications.

Brazing Guidance
Use with a suitable silver brazing flux where required. Clean the joint area thoroughly before brazing and apply heat evenly to the parent metals.
Correct joint clearance is important to allow the alloy to flow through the joint by capillary action.
