Product Uses and Applications

When brazing aluminium alloys in air it is necessary to use a brazing flux.

Three general formulations of flux are in regular use:

  • Fluoride based fluxes that have a narrow operating temperature range and non-corrosive flux residues
  • Fluoride based fluxes containing caesium compounds used for aluminium alloys that contain magnesium
  • Chloride based fluxes that have a wide operating temperature range and corrosive flux residues

VBC Group can supply each of these formulations depending on the requirements of the application.
