Brazing Rod suits all non-ferrous metals and aluminum.
Press Release Summary:
Comprised of 9 alloys, Fluxless Brazing Rod, Model HTS-2000 has elongation of 10% in 2 in. and penetrates past impurities that lay below metal's surface. Joints last permanently in normal or protected environments, and will endure 10 years or longer under severe conditions. Any heat source, such as propane, butane, mapp, or oxy-acetylene torch can be used. Rod features working temperature of 717-737° and provides tensile strength of 45,900 psi.
Original Press Release:
Second Generation Fluxless Brazing Rod
Used with nothing more than a heat source, such as propane or oxy-acetylene! Through recent advancements in metallurgy, HTS-2000 is found to be the easiest, fastest, and strongest brazing rod ever to be developed! Made for all non-ferrous metals and aluminum parts, HTS-2000 is a second generation Industrial Strength Brazing Rod created from a revolutionary new formula. Not to be confused with Alumaloy, Alumaweld, Alumarod, Durafix, Aladdin 3 in 1, or any other first generation rods most of them consisting of 3 alloys. HTS-2000 is a unique stand-alone product, Comprised of nine alloys that cost more to produce and through exhaustive testing led to this superior advanced technology. HTS-2000 has an elongation of 10% in 2 inches (rather than the standard 3% like the first generation rods listed above) which makes HTS-2000 3 times more flexible and stronger than any of its competitors. It also easily penetrates past impurities that lay below the metal's surface which may be impossible to penetrate with competitors materials. Also unlike the first generation rods HTS-2000 does not require steel or special cleaning brushes. All of this means not only a more expensive manufacturing process with new technology but also superior quality (this is the best brazing rod you can buy anywhere at any price) direct to the customer, see our testimonials and video and it will be easy for you to choose HTS-2000 as your #1 choice The results are unquestionable. The repairs are stronger than new. Requires No Flux. Metal-to-Metal Bond. 100% Metal Alloy. Stronger than the Base Metal - up to 45,900 PSI. Low Temperature. Between 717 and 737 Degrees Working Temperature. Over 500 Degrees Below Melt Point of Aluminum. Use Any Heat Source, such as propane, butane, mapp, or an oxy-acetylene torch. Stores Safely and Indefinitely. Simple - Versatile - Portable. Brazes all Aluminum Alloys, including zinc, magnesium, pot metal, and cast. HTS-2000 is a "Second Generation" fluxless low-heat brazing rod for nonferrous metals. HTS-2000 will successfully join all aluminum alloys, including those that are not favorably joined by high-temperature brazing. When drawn over heated aluminum, HTS-2000 penetrates the aluminum oxide, creating a molecular bond that is stronger than the original commercial aluminum. Electrochemical corrosion is never a problem, because the electrode potential between HTS-2000 and aluminium is so slight. HTS-2000 joints last permanently in normal or protected environments. They will endure 10 years or longer under severe conditions. HTS-2000 joints are evaluated as permanent, corrosion resistant, and stronger than joints made by heli-arc machines and all other brazing rods tested. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Tensile: 45,900 PSI Therm. Exp.: 15.2 x 10- 6in./in./F° Elongation: 10% in 2 inches Elec. Cond: 26 (% of copper std.) Impact: 43 Ft. lbs (charpy) S.P. Grav.: 6.6 Shear: 31,000 PSI Weight: 0.24 lbs/cu. in. Melting Point: 717°- 737° Rockwell: 48 ADVANTAGES OF HTS-2000 OVER WELDING: 1. Cost of Equipment - No argon gas, wire spool, gloves, shield, or electricity required. 2. Portability - Stores easily, along with small torch. 3. Skills Needed - Simple instructions virtually anyone can use. No flux, chemicals, or special cleaners required. 100% guaranteed. 4. Danger - No high voltage electricity used. 5. Oily Aluminum - Heli-arc boils aluminum and any impurities below the surface must be brought to the top and cleaned off. 6. Thin Aluminum - Melts 500 degrees before aluminum. 7. Different Alloys - Works with any alloy of aluminum or cast aluminum. 8. Time Involved - Makes many repairs much quicker than conventional methods. 9. Filling Holes - Instantly fills any size hole for threads much stronger than the original threads. 10. Versatility - One product fills cracks or holes, rebuilds ears, seals leaks, or permanently bonds flat pieces.
