Slik-Sil 104 is used to join similar and dissimilar metals such as copper, nickel, stainless steel, brass, bronze,
Inconel®
and Monel®
. Excellent for carbides, light gauge metals (except white metals), heat-treated parts and
tight-fitting joints. Color is silver to light yellow, similar to polished brass.
PROCEDURE:
Prepare surfaces to be joined by mechanical or chemical cleaning. Fixture parts to maintain alignment. Joint
clearance should not exceed 0.005”. Heat parts uniformly with a slightly carburizing flame. Place Slik-Sil
thermal flux directly on the heated joint. When the flux becomes clear and fluid, melt a small amount of alloy
onto the joint and continue heating to uniformly spread the alloy through the entire joint area. DO NOT
OVERHEAT THE base metaL. Allow the part to cool slowly, then remove flux residue by brushing in warm
water.
*Bare rod and flux is available as Slik-Sil 114. Use with Slik-Sil Flux for regular applications or MG High Therm
Flux for high heat applications.
