Can soldering flux be used for brazing?
Silver Brazing / Soldering Flux
Molten at 1000°F and active to a maximum of 1800°F. It exhibits a long active lift at brazing temperatures combined with excellent fluidity and promotes outstanding adherence.
Do you need flux with brazing rod?
A fluxing agent (or a controlled atmosphere as found in furnace brazing) is required for all brazing and soldering applications. The purpose of the flux is to remove oxides from the base material and to prevent oxidation during the heating process, thus promoting the free flow of the brazing filler metal.
