THE SPEEDFLUX METHOD FOR GAS WELDING

A high-speed production process for braze-welding steel and other metals with bronze rods, nickel-silver rods and silver solders.

SpeedFlux is a boron infused liquid flux which is vaporized and inducted into the fuel gas stream automatically. The SpeedFlux dispenser picks up the flux in vapor form and delivers it to the torch in the gas - thus the flux is in the flame, evident by the green color. The use of SpeedFlux assures exactly the right amount of flux, applied automatically. No glassy residue is formed. Finishing costs such as filing or grinding are practically eliminated. As the flame contacts the metal part, the flux in the flame cleans and fluxes the parent metal. The use of blue-tinted goggles is recommended as these enable the green SpeedFlux flame to be more easily seen and adjusted, see picture below.

There is no special technique. Proceed as for ordinary welding and brazing. The flame should be "soft" and used like a brush to keep the deposited metal flowing.

One U.S. Gallon of SpeedFlux will process from 2500-3000 cubic feet of acetylene.

Available in 1 gallon can, 5 gallon pail, and 53 gallon drums.
