Safety-Silv® 40T Brazing Alloy HARRIS

Safety-Silv® 40T brazing filler metal is primarily developed for brazing copper, brass, and steel components. Its melting range allows reliable performance where joint clearances cannot be tightly controlled.

The alloy includes a tin addition which lowers the melting temperature and allows reduced silver content compared with traditional higher silver alloys. This results in good alloy flow and offers cost reduction while maintaining dependable brazed joint performance for industrial and HVAC applications.

The alloy is suitable for fabrication, maintenance, and production brazing work where consistent joint filling and economical alloy selection are required.
