DETAILS
Safety-Silv® 56 is a cadmium-free high silver filler metal that produces premium-quality brazes. It is free flowing with unsurpassed capillary attraction and deep penetration with high ductility. Its excellent fluidity promotes braze penetration. Safety-Silv® 56 has a narrow melting range and the lowest melting temperature of all the high silver brazing filler metals. This filler metal offers good fluidity and joint strength. Used to braze copper, brass, steel, stainless steel and some nickel filler metals. The silver deposit color is a good match for stainless steel and silverware applications and is suitable for use in the food processing industry. Close tolerances are recommended; 0.002 – 0.005” for best performance. Certified to NSF Standard 51. Conforms to the EU Reach & RoHS directive.
