Advantages Of Honeywell Brazing flux

Honeywell Potassium Fluoroaluminate flux (AL-2805) enables a more robust and efficient brazing process when compared to other fluxes, and is characterized by a uniform amorphous and less abrasive morphology, and a high reactivity with aluminum oxide.

A lower flux melting point of 552 (± 3.0°C)

Honeywell Potassium Fluoroaluminate flux (AL-2805) has a unique multi-constituent phase, with amorphous amounts, providing a melting point of 552 ± 3.0°C. This melting point is 25 °C lower than the eutectic melting point of an Al-Si filler metal.
