Form:

This specification covers a silver alloy in the form of wire, rod, sheet, strip, foil, pig, powder, shot, and chips, and a viscous mixture (paste) of powder in a suitable binder.

Application:

This material has been used typically for torch or induction brazing of ferrous metals, including austenitic steels and alloys, where high joint strength up to 400 °F (207 °C) is required, and for joining nonferrous metals except those having a base of titanium, aluminum or magnesium, but usage is not limited to such applications.

WARNING:

Numerous scientific studies have determined that cadmium presents a health hazard to persons who are exposed to it.
