> 3 dayI have used this silver solder for decades. My dad introduced it to me and he used it to butt solder the ends of metal cutting bandsaw blades made from blade stock. This is an almost unbelievably strong joint and must flex also. I have used it for many things. It is very good soldering dissimilar metals also. Brass to iron, etc, etc, etc. Thank you.

> 3 dayI bought this to attempt to put together some thin pieces. I brazed some brass to brass and some brass to stainless. This worked great. It melted good with a propane torch. But it is important that you remember that the work piece is what has to get up to temp. If you are using a propane torch, you parts have to be fairly small.

> 3 dayHarris is a known brand: dependable quality--no surprises--it is what it says it is. With a little practice almost anyone can learn to silver solder. The secret is metal preparation, the use of the right flux, and rapid rise in temperature to red glowing hot. Propane is hot enough--the technique is to get the proper amount of heat to the metal to be soldered and not to use oxy-acetylene which will likely burn up the flux before soldering temperature is reached. Use white flux for small jobs and black flux for larger jobs which will take longer to heat up.

> 3 dayDoes a great job brazing copper or dissimilar metals. Has a lower melting point that 15% Sil-Fos and flows more like soft solder. My go to for brass to copper brazing jobs. Flux as needed.
