97032 - Handy & Harman Handy Flux White - General Purpose Silver Brazing Paste

Get Superior Brazing Results with Handy Flux

When it comes to silver brazing (often called silver soldering), preparation is everything. Handy & Harman's Handy Flux White is the legendary paste that welders and fabricators have trusted for decades to ensure perfect joints. Whether you are repairing an HVAC line, fabricating custom stainless steel parts, or joining copper piping, this flux is your insurance policy against bad bonds and oxidation.

The magic of Handy Flux lies in its ability to tell you when to braze. As you heat your base metal, the white paste transforms. It starts as a white paste, dries out slightly, and then melts into a clear, water-like liquid at exactly 1100°F—the perfect starting temperature for most silver brazing alloys. This visual cue prevents overheating and ensures you introduce your filler rod at the right moment. It effectively dissolves oxides on the metal surface, allowing the silver solder to flow smoothly and deeply into the joint for maximum strength.

This 1 lb jar provides ample material for numerous projects. The paste is easy to brush on and stays where you put it, even on pipe undersides. It works seamlessly with popular alloys like Easy-Flo, Silvaloy, and Safety-Silv. Once your work is cool, you won't have to struggle with rock-hard glass deposits; the residue washes away easily with hot water and a rag or wire brush, leaving you with a clean, professional-looking assembly.
