BROWNELLS BLACK BRAZING FLUX
The Brownells Black Brazing Flux is a premium high-temperature paste flux specifically formulated for demanding silver soldering and brazing applications. Designed to perform in elevated temperature environments, it is particularly effective when used with Brownells Silvaloy 355 Silver Solder and other high-silver-content alloys. Its ability to withstand temperatures up to 1800°F makes it ideal for firearm assembly, repair, restoration, and custom gunsmithing projects that require reliable bonding on difficult-to-solder materials.
Engineered to perform exceptionally well on stainless steel and other refractory metals, Black Brazing Flux helps prevent oxidation while improving solder flow and wetting action during the heating process. The easy-to-control paste consistency allows precise application exactly where it is needed, minimizing waste and improving workpiece cleanliness. Once the job is complete, residue can be removed with hot water for simplified cleanup.
