ST-BCF Rod(Wire) Advantages of Flux Coated and Flux Cored Alloy Filler Metals:

• Labor savings - Simplifies and eliminates a separate fluxing operation.
• Produces stronger joints - Less flux entrapped inside the joint, leaving the braze joints with improved strength because the use of coated and cored products has been found to reduce flux inclusions at the joint interface.
• Improved operations - the all in one product streamlines customer's supply chain, eliminating the need to buy flux and alloy, while also automating brazing and assembly with high velocity, single piece flow.
• Multiple uses - Flux coating can be used for coating of bulk strip, rods, engineered preforms and discrete parts.
• Reduced costs - Reduction of post braze cleaning and secondary finishing operations, thereby reducing overall metal-joining costs.
• Waste reduction - Flux coating reduces the waste of too little or too much flux, and the consistent application of flux and alloy improves joint quality.
• Exposure reduction - Flux contamination within components on plant equipment and in the waste water is dramatically reduced. Flux exposure to brazing personnel is reduced.
