Amerway #50 Water Soluble Tinning Flux Technical Bulletin
Technical Bulletin
| Description: |
| The Amerway # 50 Water Soluble Tinning Paste Flux is a paste flux specially
formulated for use on copper or brass alloy surfaces such as copper or brass tubing in the
plumbing, radiator or heat exchanger manufacturing industry. This flux may also be used
for radiator repair as well as tinning of flat metal surfaces. Since the Amerway # 50 is a
water soluble product, any flux residues left on the soldered surfaces may be cleaned with
tap water. The Amerway # 50 Tinning Paste Flux may also be used in any pre-tinning
and fluxing applications as required. |
| Application: |
| Clean all metal surfaces prior to soldering or making repairs. Remove all
corrosion, dirt or paint from surfaces before applying the Amerway # 50 Tinning Paste
Flux. Apply flux using a brush on all surfaces to be soldered or tinned. The solder will
not flow on surfaces that have not been fluxed. When soldering copper tubing for
plumbing, apply flux on both fittings and tubing. Apply solder to joining surfaces while
maintaining required temperature. When the soldered joint is covered and filled, remove
heat source and allow the solder to cool. |
| Residue Removal: |
| Flux residue may be corrosive under some circumstances. If post residue removal
is considered necessary, removal may be done with tap water or a damp cloth. |
| Safety: |
| Amerway # 50 Tinning Paste Flux is harmful if swallowed. It is also an irritant to
eyes and skin. Carefully read all safety warnings on the Material Safety Data Sheet. |
