HPP 524F

                 ORANGE SILVER BRAZE
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
HPP524F has excellent wetting action on a wide range of metals, especially stainless steels and carbides.  This alloy is cadmium free, non-toxic and easier to use due to the elimination of the glare in the flame.  HPP524F is the most economical substitute for the higher silver alloys.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS:  with the absence of cadmium, HPP524F is perfect for the food and drug industries.  Use it to join similar and dissimilar metals such as copper, nickel, stainless steel, brass, bronze, Inconell** and Monel**.  Excellent for carbides, light gauge metals, heat treated parts and tight fitting joints.  Color is silver to light yellow, similar to polished brass.

Technical Data:
Diameter                  1/16"          Elongation. approx.         24%
Tensile strength.       up to 73,000 PSICorrosion resistance.good
Working temperature.approx.  1275o F

Procedure:
Prepare surfaces to be joined by mechanical or chemical cleaning.  Fixture parts to maintain alignment.  Joint clearance should not exceed .003".  Heat parts uniformly with a slightly carburizing flame, place the flux directly on the heated joint.  When the flux becomes clear and fluid, melt a small amount of alloy onto the joint and continue heating to uniformly spread the alloy through the entire joint area.  DO NOT OVERHEAT THE BASE METAL.  Allow the part to cool slowly, then remove flux residue with warm water.
