innovative low temperature hardfacing
Deposition of diverse alloys and composite materials, using readily available flame equipment, means most abrasion resistant coatings applied with optimal metallurgical bonding and zero dilution with the base material.
For cleaning, wetting and protection
Fluxes are carefully engineered chemical products used for removing metal oxides from the surface of metal parts to be joined. This removal or cleaning process takes place during the brazing operation. The selection of the optimal flux for the application, base metal and brazing alloy is essential for successful brazing operations.
We produce solid rings and tailor-made rings with inner flux
Our vast product range includes a wide selection of filler metals in the form of diverse rings, foils, wires, rods, pastes and special pre-forms to meet all your OEM and maintenance requirements.
Optimal ratio of flux and metal for all standard jobs
At Castolin Eutectic, we understand that each application has individual and specific requirements. Therefore, we have designed and manufactured several types of coated rods to meet the demands of our customers. Unlike most competitors, we do not use a universal flux for all rods, each rod contains the type of flux required by the alloy being coated. Additionally, each alloy has a specific flux coating colour which helps operators know which alloy/colour to use.
Reduce filler metal consumption
Brazing pastes are the best choice for automated processes. Castolin Eutectic's pastes distinguish themselves from the competition by having:
- Maximum paste stability
- Optimised dispensing characteristics
- Easy clean-up with water (hands, tools)
- Minimum development of smoke (furnace brazing)
- Binder does not influence the brazing process
- Maximum capillarity
- Highest quality metal powder
- Simple flux residue removal
Brazing can be used on dissimilar metals and materials
Brazing has been around for 1000s of years. Brazed joints have been used in plumbing, air-conditioning, heating, electronics and numerous other applications for a very long time. A brazed joint will last a lifetime and is proven to do so. Other materials, such as plastic, have not been around long enough to make the same claims. Additionally, if you do not get it right the first time, with brazing you can reheat the joining and repair it without having to disassemble, or completely reinstall the affected parts. You can rest assure that when brazing you are using the most reliable joining solution on the market.
