Flux
plays a vital role in virtually all welding processes.
Use of the wrong flux or a poor application technique
can have a dramatic effect on joint quality.
There
are also special fluxes for brazing tungsten carbide, stainless
steel brazing, induction brazing, brazing aluminum bronze,
manufacturing flux coated rods, reducing red staining on
brass and brazing refractory metals.

Flux10
|
A
powder flux for brazing and welding aluminum. A premium
formula flux. Active in a range between 1080 ºF
and 1140 ºF. The powder turns to a clear liquid
when the proper brazing temperature has been attained.
Can also be used as a paste.
|
|
Flux11
|
A
powder flux for brazing cast or malleable iron with
bronze rod. Flux11 is active between 1500 ºF and
2000 ºF. Joints are bright, clean, strong and free
from porosity, owing to the scavenging action of the
flux. Applications include industrial equipment, marine
engines, and maintenance.
|
|
Flux14
|
A
powder flux for welding aluminum and aluminum based
alloys in sheet, extruded and cast forms. It is especially
designed for welding 52-S, 53-S and the pure 2-S aluminum
sheet employed in aircraft. This flux melts at 1060
ºF and has a useful range up to 1200 ºF. The
flux is an excellent solvent for aluminum oxide and
promotes strong weld joints free of oxide inclusions.
Applications include aircraft, HVAC, home building and
maintenance.
|
|
Flux17
|
A
high temperature flux, works very well with ferrous
metals, stainless steels, carbides and specialty alloys
containing refractory oxides. Applications include carbide
tools, industrial equipment, mining tools, fire extinguishers,
jobs involving large parts and long heating cycles.
|
| Flux52 |
A
salt type flux used on zinc die castings, pot metal
and DOW metals.
|
| Flux505 |
A
liquid flux for soldering with all soft solders. use
Aufhauser 505 (neutral) flux with any commercial lead-tin,
tin-silver, tin-antimony soft solders. It is a general
purpose, neutral, "noncorrosive" soldering
flux for use on electrical devices, electronic parts,
concealed joints, and for items where corrosion cannot
be tolerated. It is active between 300 ºF and
500 ºF.
|
| Flux600
|
A white granular powder flux. Works well on ferrous,
non-ferrous alloys and stainless steels and is most
suitable for use with low fuming bronze (C681) filler
metal. Entirely free of fluorides, with a high boric
acid content which permits the flux to stick to hot
filler metal rods. It
is active in a heat range between 1400 ºF to
2200 ºF.
|
| Flux800 |
A
powder flux for gas-welding cast iron with cast iron
rod. The flux keeps the welding puddle clean and promotes
the formation of non-porous, dense and uniform weld
joints that are machinable. Applications include engine
repair and general maintenance.
|
| Flux900 |
A
powder flux For brazing and welding magnesium. use
with Aufhauser AZ61A and AZ92A magnesium alloys. Aufhauser
Flux900 is a special salt-powder flux formulated for
magnesium. Active heat range is 950 ºF to 1300
ºF. It may be mixed with water or alcohol to
form a paste. The residue may be removed with warm
water.
|
| Stainless
Steel Flux |
A
powder flux for gas-welding stainless steels and other
chromium-nickel alloys. Especially formulated for
welding both the 300 and 400 series of stainless steel.
Promotes excellent weld joints; the glassy residue
is self cleaning, exposing clean and bright metal.
Applications include industrial equipment and maintenance.
|
| Backside
StainFlux |
A
powder flux used on the back-side of stainless steel,
with MIG or TIG welding. It is designed to take the
place of an argon purge or ceramic backup tape. This
flux increases weld penetration, reduces oxide inclusions,
and significantly improves the quality of the weld.
Applications include appliances, food and restaurant
equipment, paper-making machinery, and maintenance.
|
| High
Production Welding Flux |
| SpeedFlux
B2 |
|
Boron
infused, high speed automation liquid flux for braze-welding
steel and other metals with bronze rods, nickel-silver
rods and silver solders. Flux is dispersed through
the flame. Applications include all-surface brazing
applications, building up shafts and spindles, automotive,
sculpture, jewelry, HVAC and general maintenance.
|
| SpeedFlux
LPG |
|
Similar
to the B2, but is intended for use with all liquefied
petroleum gas systems such as MAPP and others.
