- AWS A5.8: BCuP-5
- Used to join copper or brass
- Primarily used where tight clearances cannot be held
- Recommended gap clearances of .002 to .005
- Brazing temperature range: 1300-1500°F / 704-816°C
AG-15 is a Phos-copper brazing alloy that is primarily used for the joining of copper to copper, copper alloys, brass and bronze. This alloy is self-fluxing on copper joints. However, when used with a copper alloy a brazing flux must be used. The recommended joint clearances are .001” – .005”. The flow point of AG-15 is 1300ºF (704ºC).
The Gasflux Company recognizes that each brazing application is unique. We would welcome the opportunity to discuss your application and recommend the right brazing alloy that best meets your needs.
