OVERVIEW

Tackle High Heat and Carbides with Confidence

When your brazing job involves high temperatures or stubborn materials like stainless steel and carbide, standard white flux just won't cut it. That's where Unibraze HT-1 Black Flux comes in. This 1 lb jar of high-temperature paste is formulated to keep working when the heat turns up, rated for use between 1450°F and 2000°F. It is the go-to solution for welders and fabricators working on carbide tipping, heavy machinery parts, or any project where the torch stays on the metal for a long time.

The 'Black' flux formula is enriched with boron, giving it the stamina to resist burning out during long heating cycles. This means you get consistent protection and wetting action from the start of the braze to the finish, reducing the risk of voids or weak joints. It cuts right through the tough oxides on stainless steel and nickel alloys, ensuring your silver solder flows exactly where it needs to go. Whether you are using an oxy-fuel torch or an induction heater, HT-1 gives you the control and reliability needed for professional-grade silver brazing.

Why Choose HT-1 Black Flux?

  • High Heat Tolerance: Won't break down or char at 1800°F like standard flux.
  • Carbide Friendly: The best choice for brazing tungsten carbide tools.
  • Longer Life: Stays active during extended heating, perfect for thick parts.
  • Easy Cleanup: Residue washes off with hot water.

FAQ

Black flux (like HT-1) contains boron and is designed for higher temperatures (up to 2000°F) and longer heating cycles compared to white flux. It is better suited for stainless steel and carbides.

Unibraze HT-1 is active between 1450°F and 2000°F (788°C - 1093°C).

No, this is a silver brazing flux for ferrous and non-ferrous metals like steel, stainless, copper, and brass. It is not for aluminum.

The flux residue is water-soluble. It can be removed using hot water and a stiff brush or by quenching the part (if the base metal allows) while it is still hot.

Yes, HT-1 is excellent for induction brazing due to its ability to withstand rapid heating and high temperatures without breaking down.

It is designed for use with Silver Brazing filler metals (BAg series).

Yes, most high-temperature brazing fluxes contain fluorides and borates. Proper ventilation and safety gear should be used.

Stainless steel forms refractory oxides that are difficult to dissolve. The boron in black flux is more aggressive at dissolving these oxides and provides better protection at the higher temperatures often required.
