Silver Brazing Rods consist mainly of silver and copper, zinc, and tin or nickel in some cases, according to the alloy level. They normally display a melting point of 600°C to 800°C. The rods are very ductile, tensile in strength, and corrosion resistant, thus suitable for welding dissimilar metals. The mechanical strength is alloy dependent but typically 300 to 600 MPa. They have a fine-grain microstructure that allows easy flow and good bonding, low porosity, and high joint integrity even at dynamic mechanical loading.
Silver Grade of Brazing Alloy | Nominal Composition % | Melting Range | International Standards | |||||
Ag | Cu | Zn | Cd | Others | °C |  DIN:8513 | AWS:A5.8 | |
| SILVER 67Cd | 67 | 11 | 12 | 10 | – | 635-720 | L-Ag67Cd | – |
| Used for brazing of silver goods made of silver alloys. | ||||||||
| SILVER 50Cd | 50 | 15.5 | 16.5 | 18 | – | 620-640 | L-Ag50Cd | BAg-1a |
| One of the lowest melting point Silver Brazing alloys available. It has excellent flow characteristics. The highest joint strength can be obtained with this alloy. Has better resistance to corrosion in chlorine, sulphur and steam environments. | ||||||||
| SILVER 45Cd | 45 | 15 | 16 | 24 | – | 605-620 | L-Ag45Cd | BAg-1 |
| This has the lowest brazing temperature range of the BAg filler metals. It also flows more freely into narrow clearance capillary joints. Its narrow melting range is suitable for rapid or slow methods of heating. | ||||||||
| SILVER 44Cd | 44 | 27 | 13 | 15 | 1P | 595-660 | – | – |
| Low melting filler metal for brazing electrical contacts and molybdenum or copper-tungsten electrodes. | ||||||||
| SILVER 43Cd | 43 | 16 | 20 | 21 | – | 615-620 | – | – |
| This has the shortest melting range of any silver brazing alloys. This alloy is regarded as the best brazing alloy by manu brazers. It is particularly recommended where a minimum brazing temperature is desirable to preserve the properties of the parent metals. Ideal where joints have a close fitup and will produce neat joints with optimum ductility and strength. | ||||||||
| SILVER 40Cd | 40 | 19 | 21 | 20 | – | 595-630 | L-Ag40Cd | – |
| SILVER 35Cd | 35 | 26 | 21 | 18 | – | 610-700 | L-Ag34Cd | BAg-2 |
| A free flowing general purpose brazing alloy. Its broader melting range is helpful where clearances are wide or are not uniform. Unless heating is rapid, care must be taken that the lower melting constituents do not separate out by liquation. | ||||||||
| SILVER 30Cd | 30 | 28 | 21 | 21 | – | 600-690 | L-Ag30Cd | BAg-2 |
| Similar to Silver 40Cd but more economical. | ||||||||
| SILVER 251Cd | 25 | 30 | 27.5 | 17.5 | – | 605-680 | – | BAg-33 |
| Silver 251, 250 & 20Cd have good fillet forming properties with an ability to bridge wide gaps. Their wide melting range limit their applications. Due to their wide melting range they are somewhat more subject to liquation and may require more care during brazing. Therefore, they are not normally recommended for applications with slow heating rates. | ||||||||
| SILVER 250Cd | 25 | 35 | 26 | 14 | – | 605-745 | – | BAg-27 |
| SILVER 20Cd | 20 | 40 | 25 | 15 | – | 605-765 | L-Ag20Cd | – |
| SILVER 12Cd | 12 | 50 | 31 | 7 | – | 620-825 | L-Ag12Cd | – |
| Economical alloy with wide melting range. Like above, preferred for applications having short heating cycles to avoid liquation. Ideal for bridging wider gaps where work pieces are insensitive to heat. | ||||||||
| SILVER 5Cd | 5 | – | – | 7 | – | 335-392 | – | – |
| Used where alloy having higher melting point and better strength than soft solder is required. | ||||||||
| C | Si | Mn | P | S | Cr |
| 95/1.25 | .40 max. | .37 | .045 max | .045 max. | .35 / .45 |
Silver brazing rods generally do not require corrosion protection coatings for most applications. However, in highly corrosive environments, additional coatings or protective measures may be beneficial to prevent degradation.
Silver brazing rods are not designed for welding, as they are intended for brazing. Attempting to weld them can result in poor joint strength and structural integrity.
When installing silver brazing rods, ensure the joint surfaces are clean and properly prepared for effective bonding. Also, control the heating process to avoid overheating or damaging the material.
Silver Brazing Rods are extensively applied in high-strength, leak-tight joint applications where there is exposure to thermal cycling or vibration. They find application in HVAC and refrigeration systems for copper tube and brass fitting connections. In the automotive industry, they are utilized for fuel line, radiator, and heat exchanger applications. Aerospace uses them for joining thin-walled materials that need precision and are durable. Electronic and electrical industries also find advantage in their electrical conductivity and consistent joint strength. Electrical rods guarantee efficiency and durability in production, assembly, and repair applications in numerous challenging environments.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
