Description
Weldcote Metals Silicon Bronze is a copper based filler metal containing 3% silicon and small amounts of manganese, tin and zinc.
- Primarily used for MIG, TIG and oxy-acetylene welding or copper, copper-silicon and copper-zinc base metals to themselves and steel.
- Excellent for plain or galvanized steel sheet metals as sell as other coated steels
- Weldcote Metals Silicon Bronze is also used for surfacing areas subject to corrosion.
- The oxy-acetylene gas flame should be slightly oxidizing. Keep the weld puddle small in order to promote fast solidification and minimizing cracking.
- A high boric acid flux should be used both before and during welding. Preheating is NOT recommended.
