Welcome to the aluminium brazing blog site. We will regularly be publishing articles about aluminium brazing in this blog and we look forward to your comments, remarks and questions. Behind the scenes in this blog are the specialists for aluminium brazing from Solvay Fluor. This blog is a corporate blog and offers you new, additional ways to communicate with us.
What is NOCOLOK® Cs Flux (SM)? (Synthesized Material) NOCOLOK® Cs Flux is used for brazing of aluminium alloys with higher magnesium levels. The Cs flux currently available for CAB (Controlled Atmosphere Brazing – furnace brazing) is a technical mixture (i.e. a mechanical blend) of K-Al-F flux (NOCOLOK® Flux) with Cs-Al-F flux – this product is offered […]
April 27 – 28, 2017 in Monterrey, Mexico The Solvay Invitational Aluminium Brazing Seminar brings together both suppliers and manufacturers in NAFTA’s growing industrial centre in Monterrey, Mexico. The Purpose To further promote aluminium brazing technology by means of presentations, comments and technical discussions. To provide numerous opportunities to establish or strengthen business relationships, […]
Go to Flux Pastes – Part 1 Properties NOCOLOK® flux and brazing pastes offer numerous advantages that distinguish them from other products. 1. Solvent system Use of systems miscible with water and glycols Equipment and facilities used for paste application can be easily cleaned with water If required, the setting or adjustment of viscosities is possible […]

Applications Flux Pastes are mainly used inside B-tubes and folded tubes, in order to provide a line of flux on a cladded surface. These paste formulations are available in FG (fine grade) version, the N version (“new” – i.e. with adjusted rheology and re-mixing characteristics) and UV version (ultraviolet sensitive pigments for special application monitoring). Metalized Flux Pastes (Brazing […]

The Chillventa shows innovation & trends from the energy efficiency – heat pumps – refrigeration sector in Nuremberg from 11 – 13 October 2016. Opening […]
In Myths about Aluminium Brazing Fluxes Part 1 we reported about the rumor that fluxes with a lower melting range are superior. Now we take a look to another Myths about Aluminium Brazing: Myth – A Flux with Smaller Particle Size is More “ACTIVE” and Leaves Less Flux Residue Some rumours have been spread that a […]
Myth – Fluxes With a Lower Melting Range are Superior There are claims that a lower melting point flux is better for brazing (i.e. melting between 550 and 560°C – approximately 10 – 15°C below conventional fluxes). The idea here is to try to fool the engineer by illustrating the merits of “early” flux melting, […]
