RBCuZn-B Copper Zinc Flux Coated Brazing Wire
RBCuZn-B Copper Zinc Flux Coated Brazing Wire Introduction
RBCuZn-B (low-fuming brass-nickel) braze welding wires are similar to RBCuZn-A but contain additions of iron and manganese which serve to increase the hardness and strength. In addition, a small amount of silicon [0.04% to 0.20%] serves to control the vaporization of the zinc, yielding the “low-fuming” property. The nickel addition [0.2% to 0.8%] assures uniform distribution of the iron in the deposit.
The filler metal is used for brazing and braze welding of steel, cast iron, copper, copper alloys, nickel, nickel alloys, and stainless steel. RBCuZn-B filler metal also is used for the surfacing of steel. It is used in torch, induction, and furnace processes. Flux and joint clearances from 0.002 in to 0.005 in [0.05 mm to 0.13 mm] are suitable.
RBCuZn-B Nickel Bronze (RBCuZn-B) brazing filler metal is similar to naval bronze but contains manganese and iron which increase the hardness and strength of the weld deposit. It also contains nickel ensuring uniform distribution of the iron in the deposit. A neutral or slightly oxidizing flame and a boric acid/boric type flux should be used.
