  3. Cadmium-Free Formula for Safe Use
    Free from cadmium, SSF-6 is a safe choice for medical devices, foodservice equipment, and other non-toxic applications. Its cadmium-free composition makes it compliant with strict safety and health regulations.
  4. Wide Range of Metal Applications
    SSF-6 works effectively with a variety of metals, including: stainless steel, brass, copper, bronze, cast iron, and carbon steel.
  5. Perfect Color Match for Stainless Steel
    SSF-6 silver solder rod is a perfect color match for stainless steel, ensuring a seamless look.
  6. Ideal for High-Temperature and High-Pressure Environments
    This 56% silver solder rod excels under thermal stress and pressure, making it suitable for applications involving temperature fluctuations and high-pressure environments.
  7. Extended Shelf Life
    SSF-6 retains its effectiveness for years when stored properly, making it a reliable, long-term investment for professionals who want to keep a stock of high-performance solder on hand.
  8. Easy Clean-Up
    After soldering, SSF-6 residue can be easily cleaned with warm water and a wire brush.

Common Applications of SSF-6 Silver Solder Rod

  • HVAC Systems: SSF-6 ensures leak-tight, durable bonds on copper tubing and other air conditioning and refrigeration system components.
  • Plumbing: SSF-6 provides strong, leak-resistant bonds for residential, commercial, and industrial plumbing systems.
  • Automotive Repair: SSF-6 is an ideal solution for brazing cast iron exhaust manifolds and other engine components.
  • Jewelry-Making: SSF-6’s ability to flow smoothly and bond different metals with precision makes it an excellent choice for jewelers working with gold, silver, copper, and more.
  • Food & Medical Equipment: The cadmium-free formulation makes SSF-6 an ideal choice for applications where cleanliness and safety are crucial, such as in medical devices and foodservice equipment.

 

 


Note:  Pre-cleaning the parent metal is always advised, as it will result in a stronger bond.

Your torch must be able to heat the metal to 1150°F to flow properly.  Large pieces or thick metal may require oxyacetylene to achieve proper working temperature.

Description

SSF-6 is high-strength 56% silver solder alloy.  An ideal replacement for fluxless silver solder coils, our flux-coated rod has high thin flow, flows easily, and can be used with a variety of metals at over 70,000 psi.

SSF-6 is the only fluxed silver solder that’s strong enough to clean oxidized stainless steel, and SSF-6 wets even burned stainless. It can be used on cast iron, as well as for bonding stainless steel, brass, copper, bronze, mild steel,  carbon steel,  chrome-moly, German steel, inconel , cuprenickel, and cast steel individually or with other metals. To ensure safe use for medical and pharmaceutical applications, our product is also cadmium-free.

Key Features:

  • Tensile strength up to 70,000 PSI
  • Specially formulated flux coating provides twice the base metal cleansing action of conventional silver flux coatings
  • Cadmium free formula is ideal for food and pharmaceutical applications
  • Strong enough to clean oxidized stainless steel, wets even burnt stainless steel
  • 1 inch of material can flow 18 inches on thin tight fitting metals, bonding even hard to reach areas

Note:  Pre-cleaning the parent metal is always advised, as it will result in a stronger bond.
