  • white powder flux
  • Contains no boric acid

Type “HW-1” is a highly active boric acid fee powder flux for use with silver alloys in the low to medium temperature brazing of ferrous, nickel and non-ferrous alloys. Not for use on aluminum and magnesium. It readily dissolves unwanted oxides, inhibits further oxidation, and provides the clean surfaces necessary for the ready flow of molten silver alloys.
