    Low Temperature Brazing Rod



    Years ago a friend of my from England brought me a brazing rod that i was able to use with a cigerate lighter to join to pieces of refrigerant copper pipes.This friend on mine is no more in Nigeria, I have been trying to reach but all in vein. Please if someone knows this type of brazing rod let me have the detail of it so that I can place an order.


    Best regarsd,

    are you sure it was rod and not a high silver content solder to be used with an acid flux.It's strong but goes pourous after many years have passed.

    Real high silver content and becoming porous??
    It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.
