C681125036WTR00 - Aufhauser FCB-18 Flux Coated Low Fuming Bronze Brazing Rod 1/8"

Grab-and-Go Brazing Power

When you are in the middle of a repair job, the last thing you want is to be fumbling around with a can of flux powder that’s been kicked over or contaminated with shop dust. The Aufhauser Flux Coated Bronze rod (FCB-18) solves that problem instantly. This 1/8-inch rod comes pre-coated with a high-activity flux that does the cleaning for you. You just light your torch, heat the part, and apply the rod. The flux melts right where you need it, breaking down rust and oxides so the bronze flows out smooth and fast like butter on hot toast.

This isn't just about convenience; it's about getting a quality bead every time. This "Low Fuming" bronze is designed to keep the air clearer and your puddle visible. If you have ever choked on zinc fumes from cheap brazing rods, you will appreciate the difference here. It is perfect for those tricky repairs on cast iron housings, cracked manifolds, or galvanized steel frames where you need a bond that holds tight without cracking. Because it brazes at a lower temperature than steel welding, you don't warp your parts or blow holes through thin sheet metal.

The finished weld is tough but workable. If you are building up a worn shaft or fixing a gear tooth, you can file or machine this bronze down to a perfect finish once it cools. It’s ductile, meaning it can take a bit of flexing without snapping, which is crucial for equipment that vibrates. Whether you are fixing a farm implement, plumbing a custom line, or doing artistic metalwork, keep a tube of these Aufhauser flux-coated rods in your truck. They are the ultimate multi-tool for oxy-fuel joining, saving you time and hassle on every joint.
