BCuP-2 (0% Silver)
Alloy Type: A5.8, BRAZING Filler Metals
BCuP-2 Phos-Copper (BCuP-2) low cost alloy is suitable for most copper-to-copper or brass joints where good fit-up exists, and the assemblies are not subject to vibration or movement. Developed primarily for use on copper, this alloy may also be used on other nonferrous copper base alloys. By virtue of its phosphorus content, this product is self-fluxing on copper only applications. A flux should be used when brazing brass or bronze with this product. *
Typical Applications: Applications with joint clearance of .001”-.003”; refrigeration units; electrical conductors; copper and brass fittings; air conditioning apparatus; copper and brass equipment
