Joining galvanized steel tubes
, Tubular frames, Car bodies
, Locks & brass plumbing
Industry Examples
Window frames in galvanized iron: the joints need a fluid brazing and this can be obtained with 18 because of its silver content. Clock faces in mild steel.
Parts of fire guards: reverse joining is less visible.
Galvanized steel: water pipes, heating installations for dryers, railings, suction pipes, roofing, ventilation ducts, coating, dustbins, washing baskets, washing machine drums and ice-cream moulds.
