Review: These work great as replacements for silver brazing rods at a much lower costs. - I've used silver brazing rods for 40+ years. I bought these because they are much less expensive than silver. I tried them out and as far as I can tell they work just like silver rods. I think they might have a slightly lower melting point, which is fine with me. I like to go outside and work on my Ham Radio wire antennas. I use a Mapp gas torch for this. With the silver rods, it took a little more effort to melt then. These flow perfectly. The joint formed is hard as rock. Review: Brazing rod for jewelry making - I'm just learning how to braze in jewelry making. This was my first purchase. recommended from a professional metalsmither. Before using I cut them in thirds and ran them thru my rolling mill tight enough so they split. I learned that doing more than 1/3 they wouldn't split. By splitting you have less solder to go onto the metal and that's a good thing. Otherwise these are too thick for this process. When I run out I plan on buying more of the same. ## Features - The product is 1/2LB Super Sill Flo Rod - Easy to use - The product is manufactured in China - Super Sil-Flo brazing rod is a brazing alloy that is ideal for large and small copper tubing installations - Self fluxing on copper - Typical applications are refrigeration control valves, joining copper wires to rotor bars, electrical connections - T joints, wage joints and sleeves, couplings on return bends and condenser fitting - Sil-flo is not recommended for ferrous metals such as iron or steel ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Manufacturer | Forney | | Part Number | 48571 | | Item Weight | 0.01 ounces | | Product Dimensions | 21.25 x 1.62 x 0.75 inches | | Country of Origin | USA | | Item model number | 48571 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Size | No Size | | Color | No Color | | Material | Alloy | | Thickness | 0.13 Inches | | Power Source | AC | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Capacity Description | Tensile Strength: 40,000 PSI Melting Point: 1,200° F (649° C) Copper: 92% Phosphorus: 7.5% | | Measurement System | standard | | Included Components | Flo Brazing Rod | | Batteries Included? | No | | Batteries Required? | No | | Warranty Description | 90 day warranty against manufacturer defects | ## Images ![Forney 48571 Super Sil Flo Brazing Rod, 1/8-Inch, 1/2-Pound - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/612fBpV02vL.jpg) ![Forney 48571 Super Sil Flo Brazing Rod, 1/8-Inch, 1/2-Pound - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71alFJ0sMCL.jpg) ![Forney 48571 Super Sil Flo Brazing Rod, 1/8-Inch, 1/2-Pound - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/616+WT3zMdL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These work great as replacements for silver brazing rods at a much lower costs. *by R***E on February 10, 2015* I've used silver brazing rods for 40+ years.
