The alloys in this group are intended
primarily as substitutes for the cadmium bearing alloys.
They are all developed from the
silver copper zinc system which in many cases has been modified by
a small addition of tin.
Silver 60% & 67%
are particularly suitable for joining Electrical
Components requiring high electrical conductivity and give a close
colour match of silver. Also used for brazing silver goods.
Silver 60%
Sn is specially for vacuum applications and brazing small
parts most suited in protective atmosphere.
Silver 55%
is for use on any steels, copper and copper alloys,
nickel and nickel alloys.
Silver 56%
is used by the dairy and food industry. After brazing gives a
closer match with metals such as stainless steel.
Silver 50%,
Silver 45%, Silver 44%
are widely used for electrical applications and in
joining dissimilar metals. Silver 45 has broad applications in
furnace brazing.
Silver 40%
(with Sn) , Silver 30% with Sn are
free flowing alloys for ferrous, non-ferrous and dissimilar metals
with good fluidity.
Silver 30%
& 25% are least silvers of this
family. Moderate ductility limits joint design and applications.
