When precision and safety are paramount, professional welders and fabricators turn to Lucas-Milhaupt Silvalloy 560. This 56% silver brazing alloy (AWS A5.8 Class BAg-7) is engineered to deliver superior performance without the health hazards associated with cadmium-bearing solders. It is particularly valued for its low melting temperature range (Solidus 1145°F / Liquidus 1205°F), which allows for faster brazing cycles and reduced heat-affected zones. This characteristic is crucial when working with thin-walled tubing or delicate components where overheating could cause warping or burn-through.
Silvalloy 560 flows freely and wets out smoothly, creating clean, aesthetic joints that require minimal post-braze finishing. Its composition of Silver (56%), Copper (22%), Zinc (17%), and Tin (5%) provides a robust balance of ductility and strength. It is highly recommended for joining 300 and 400 series stainless steels, as it helps prevent interface corrosion failures often seen with lower-silver alloys. Whether you are repairing a commercial kitchen appliance, fabricating custom stainless exhaust systems, or working on HVAC instrumentation, Silvalloy 560 ensures a durable and professional result.
This package contains one troy ounce of 1.6mm wire in a coil, offering easy handling and precise application for detailed work. Ensure your shop is equipped with the best filler metal for high-specification jobs.
