Questions & Answers
can this be used on pressurized air line?
Asked by Brian July 8, 2020Yes it should be just fine for a compressor but steel or stainless screw together fitting would be a lot better more reliable
Can this solder be used for electrical applications?
Asked by Tyson September 26, 2019You want a small diameter rosin core (flux core) solder for electrical use. Must be a non corrosive flux. This solder needs a flux. Its also too big in diameter in my opinion.
Will this product work on stainless steel? I need a lower temperature silver solder for stainles...
Asked by Jon May 15, 2018This is a tin alloy (soft solder); yes, it can be made to stick to stainless, but it is not 'easy' silver solder, which is probably what you intend. Jewelry making supplies stores will have a range of 'easy' to 'hard' silver solders, if you only need a small quantity. For stainless or other nickel alloys and soft solder (i.e. moderate temperatures) an acid flux is required, the hard-solder 'salts' won't be active enough.
Is this solder a perfect one to choose to solder jewelry?
Asked by Todd September 7, 2017For a durable bond, 'easy' silver solder is very different from this (wich is tin-based soft solder). It is suitable for soft base metal joining, in some jewelry fabrications.
How many feet is it
Asked by jay April 21, 2016Solder is sold by weight, not length.
Is this pure .9999 silver?
Asked by Questionaire March 9, 2016Most plumbing solder is mainly tin. Silver is usually less than 5%. Beware of any answers given by communityanswer because they are often totally wrong, such as saying this solder is almost 100% silver. Based on the spot price of silver, one pound of it would be about $250 today. The melting point of pure silver is 1761 degrees F, while "silver" solders melt at about 450 degrees F. Good luck soldering pipes with pure silver.
Can this product be used (along with flux) to solder two brass pieces together
Asked by Frank February 4, 2016Yes, it can be used to join two pieces of brass together. Make sure your brass is clean.
Will it block or fix main water pipe that's cracked
Asked by Jane December 31, 2015Better off cutting and putting a sleeve over the spot you cut and soldering it
