Specially formulated by Cycle Design Group
as a safe general - purpose, silver brazing flux.
Works with and improves bond and flow of every high ratio low temperature silver brazing rod. Provides optimal cleaning, and a slower more controlable flow, regardless of percentage of silver grade.

Excellent for use with steel or stainless steel, for advanced Stainless Steel Brazing, use Stainless Light.

  • System 48 is a creamy, white brazing paste flux that is active and protective to 870°C/1,600+°F. 
  • It is recommended for use with  Steel  alloys, 
     ferrous and non-ferrout metals, Nickel, Carbides, Copper
    Works well with steel or stainless steel joining.

DIRECTIONS FOR System 48 And Brazage paste fluxes
"System 48 Flux" may be used in concentrated form or diluted with water to a thinner consistency.  Heating the flux to 60°C/140°F - 82°C/180°F makes it less viscous and more reactive.  Heat the flux slowly to reduce spattering or excessive bubbling.  The raw flux and residues are soluble in hot water (at least 140°F/60°C.  Chipping or grinding is not necessary.
  1. Remove any oil, grease or other contaminants from the surface to be brazed.
    (Works best over pretreatment with Al-Tife Pro)or Hot dish soap wash, citric base soaps use no solvents
  2. Apply flux to joint by dipping, swabbing or brushing area being brazed.  The flux may be used as supplied or diluted.
  3. Apply heat, by torch, induction or other means to area being brazed after flux has been applied to activate the flux.
  4. Feed the braze alloy into the joint, unless a brazing pre-form is already in place.
  5. Clean flux residues from brazed joint using hot water (60°C±5°C /140°F±10°F) for best results.  If unavailable, room temperature water may also be used.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
Contains Potassium Fluoborate (CAS No. 14075-53-7) and should be handled with care.  Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing, using NIOSH approved safety goggles, rubber gloves and rubber apron.  As an added precaution, wash hands thoroughly after use.  Brazing should be done with adequate ventilation. Disposal of raw flux and flux residues must be carried out in accordance with local and federal environmental guidelines.
