Now you can braze anywhere that you can arc weld without the need for an oxyacetylene torch, hoses, regulators, or expensive and heavy gas bottles!

These incredibly versatile ZENA^® NO-Gas Arc Brazing Rods let you braze and fill with a high quality high tensile strength (50,000 lb. / 18% elongation) bronze alloy using only your arc welder!

You can also use these special arc brazing rods for:

joining copper alloys to stainless steel and ferrous metals, including cast iron, OR

for increasing salt water corrosion resistance, OR

to produce large, heavy bronze overlays. 

Description:

Highly versatile, smooth running, easy-to-handle, Bronze alloy electrode rod for both ferrous and nonferrous applications.

Use for filling in defects on brass and bronze, joining copper alloys to ferrous metals, including cast irons, for salt water corrosion resistance and where large, heavy overlays are required.

Mechanical Properties:

Recommended Welding Current Type / Polarity:

AC or DC straight polarity (electrode negative)

Recommended Amperage:

100 - 135 Amps

Rod Diameter:

1/8"

Product Features:

Excellent wear resistance.

Ideally suited for heavy overlaying and joining galvanized steels, copper, bronze, brass or any combination.

Typical Applications:

Recommended Welding Techniques:

Clean weld area.

Preheat is not necessary except for heavy or complex sections which should be preheated to 400 F (200 C).

Maintain a short arc gap.

Fill in craters prior to extinguishing arc.

Use a slight weaving technique or a stringer bead.

Upon cooling, slag can easily be removed by light chipping and brushing.

For multi-pass work, it might be necessary to reduce amperage setting as base metal increases in temperature.

Packaging:

1 lb. box (14 rods)

Larger packs/quantities available as special order items.
