95/5 SOLDER-N-FLUX

DESCRIPTION

95/5 tin antimony solder combined with flux in paste form for brush on application. Used for joining copper tubing and fittings in plumbing, heating and drain waste and vent lines. Can also be used to join metals including copper, brass, zinc, tin, lead, galvanized and black iron steel and some grades of stainless steel. One pound can do the work of three to four pounds of wire solder.

95/5 SOLDER-N-FLUX makes a stronger joint than
50/50 SOLDER-N-FLUX which makes it ideal for applications where temperatures, pressure or vibration is great. Also, 95/5 SOLDER-N-FLUX does not contain lead so it can be used in connection with potable water systems.

DIRECTIONS

1. Clean surface of tubing and inside of fitting with steel wool or emery cloth.
   
2. For best results check square cut, no burrs and proper fit.
   
3. Brush paste on surface of tubing and fitting and apply torch to outer metal-not directly on 95/5 SOLDER-N-FLUX.
   
4. When 95/5 SOLDER-N-FLUX flows, is drawn into joint, and residue stops bubbling, remove flame. Wipe joint clean with damp cloth or wet brush.

ADDITIONAL HINTS

1. Use soft clean brush. After using, brush can be cleaned with water.
   
2. Always keep container tightly covered when not in use. If cover is not replaced and material becomes too thick to brush on add a few drops of water and stir well. Adding too much water will reduce effectiveness of 95/5 SOLDER-N-FLUX.
   
3. Use liberal amount of 95/5 SOLDER-N-FLUX because volume is less after melting. Using wire or bar solder on all joints is helpful.
   
4. 95/5 SOLDER-N-FLUX can be used for tinning copper, brass and tin. Brush product on, heat adjacent surface and wipe when solder flows.
