These Silver Brazing Rods are mainly made of silver, combined with copper, zinc, and occasionally small amounts of tin, cadmium-free alloys, or nickel to boost performance. The silver content typically varies from 15% to 56%, influencing the melting range and flow characteristics. They boast excellent corrosion resistance, good ductility, and superior wettability, which ensures strong capillary action during the brazing process. With a tensile strength that usually falls between 40,000 and 70,000 psi, they create durable joints that maintain good mechanical stability and thermal conductivity across various base metals.
Silver Grade of Brazing Alloy | Nominal Composition % | Melting Range | International Standards | |||||
Ag | Cu | Zn | Cd | Others | °C |  DIN:8513 | AWS:A5.8 | |
| SILVER 67Cd | 67 | 11 | 12 | 10 | – | 635-720 | L-Ag67Cd | – |
| Used for brazing of silver goods made of silver alloys. | ||||||||
| SILVER 50Cd | 50 | 15.5 | 16.5 | 18 | – | 620-640 | L-Ag50Cd | BAg-1a |
| One of the lowest melting point Silver Brazing alloys available. It has excellent flow characteristics. The highest joint strength can be obtained with this alloy. Has better resistance to corrosion in chlorine, sulphur and steam environments. | ||||||||
| SILVER 45Cd | 45 | 15 | 16 | 24 | – | 605-620 | L-Ag45Cd | BAg-1 |
| This has the lowest brazing temperature range of the BAg filler metals. It also flows more freely into narrow clearance capillary joints. Its narrow melting range is suitable for rapid or slow methods of heating. | ||||||||
| SILVER 44Cd | 44 | 27 | 13 | 15 | 1P | 595-660 | – | – |
| Low melting filler metal for brazing electrical contacts and molybdenum or copper-tungsten electrodes. | ||||||||
| SILVER 43Cd | 43 | 16 | 20 | 21 | – | 615-620 | – | – |
| This has the shortest melting range of any silver brazing alloys. This alloy is regarded as the best brazing alloy by manu brazers. It is particularly recommended where a minimum brazing temperature is desirable to preserve the properties of the parent metals. Ideal where joints have a close fitup and will produce neat joints with optimum ductility and strength. | ||||||||
| SILVER 40Cd | 40 | 19 | 21 | 20 | – | 595-630 | L-Ag40Cd | – |
| SILVER 35Cd | 35 | 26 | 21 | 18 | – | 610-700 | L-Ag34Cd | BAg-2 |
| A free flowing general purpose brazing alloy. Its broader melting range is helpful where clearances are wide or are not uniform. Unless heating is rapid, care must be taken that the lower melting constituents do not separate out by liquation. | ||||||||
| SILVER 30Cd | 30 | 28 | 21 | 21 | – | 600-690 | L-Ag30Cd | BAg-2 |
| Similar to Silver 40Cd but more economical. | ||||||||
| SILVER 251Cd | 25 | 30 | 27.5 | 17.5 | – | 605-680 | – | BAg-33 |
| Silver 251, 250 & 20Cd have good fillet forming properties with an ability to bridge wide gaps. Their wide melting range limit their applications. Due to their wide melting range they are somewhat more subject to liquation and may require more care during brazing. Therefore, they are not normally recommended for applications with slow heating rates. | ||||||||
| SILVER 250Cd | 25 | 35 | 26 | 14 | – | 605-745 | – | BAg-27 |
| SILVER 20Cd | 20 | 40 | 25 | 15 | – | 605-765 | L-Ag20Cd | – |
| SILVER 12Cd | 12 | 50 | 31 | 7 | – | 620-825 | L-Ag12Cd | – |
| Economical alloy with wide melting range. Like above, preferred for applications having short heating cycles to avoid liquation. Ideal for bridging wider gaps where work pieces are insensitive to heat. | ||||||||
| SILVER 5Cd | 5 | – | – | 7 | – | 335-392 | – | – |
| Used where alloy having higher melting point and better strength than soft solder is required. | ||||||||
| C | Si | Mn | P | S | Cr |
| 95/1.25 | .40 max. | .37 | .045 max | .045 max. | .35 / .45 |
Silver brazing rods generally do not require corrosion protection coatings for most applications. However, in highly corrosive environments, additional coatings or protective measures may be beneficial to prevent degradation.
Silver brazing rods are not designed for welding, as they are intended for brazing. Attempting to weld them can result in poor joint strength and structural integrity.
When installing silver brazing rods, ensure the joint surfaces are clean and properly prepared for effective bonding. Also, control the heating process to avoid overheating or damaging the material.
Silver Brazing Rods find extensive use in industries that demand strong, leak-proof, and visually appealing joints. They’re commonly used in the HVAC and refrigeration sectors for joining copper tubing, in plumbing for robust pipe fittings, and in the electrical industry for connections that require conductivity. The automotive and aerospace industries rely on them for fuel lines, hydraulic systems, and heat exchangers due to their impressive strength and resistance to vibration. Additionally, silver brazing rods are utilized in jewelry making, tool manufacturing, and medical equipment, showcasing their versatility across essential industrial applications.
