Silicon Bronze 0.045" x 30 lb. Spool AWS A5.7 ERCuSi-A

Silicon Bronze 0.045″ x 30 lb. Spool AWS A5.7 ERCuSi-A

  • Lower Melting Temperature – Ideal for brazing applications where you don’t want to fully melt the base metal
  • Excellent Corrosion Resistance – Highly resistant to rust and oxidation
  • Smooth, Stable Arc – Produces a very stable arc with low spatter, making it easy to control
  • Good Wetting and Flow Characteristics – Flows easily over the base metal surface and creates clean, smooth beads with minimal post-weld cleanup
  • Reduced Heat Input – Minimizes distortion and warping
  • Attractive Finish – Leaves a gold/bronze-colored bead
  • Compatibility with Dissimilar Metals
  • Moderate Strength

Description

Inweld Silicon Bronze, years ago referred to as “Everdur” 656, contains 3% silicon and residual amounts of
manganese, tin and zinc. The high silicon content allows this alloy to be used in welding and brazing procedures.
Silicon Bronze is best known for welding plain or galvanized steel sheet metal. Principal applications
include MIG, TIG or oxyacetylene welding of copper, copper-silicon and copper-zinc base metals to themselves
and to steel. Silicon Bronze is also used for surfacing parts that may be exposed to a corrosive environment. The
weld deposits of this alloy demonstrate high strength, excellent corrosion resistance and good weld-ability.
Apply a high boric acid flux before and during welding. When oxyacetylene welding, the gas flame should be
slightly oxidizing. Keep a small weld pool that promotes rapid solidification and this will also minimize cracking.
