Braze 380 is a good general purpose low temperature brazing filler metal for use in cadmium-free brazing applications, such as air conditioning and refrigeration which involve the joining of steels, copper, copper alloys and nickel alloys.
Braze 380 is a free-flowing, low temperature filler metal with excellent wetting characteristics of most ferrous and non-ferrous base metals, and is a good substitute for cadmium-bearing filler metals with similar silver content. The material is best suited for narrow gap situations (0.001" - 0.005" radial joint clearance). Handy Flux , Handy Flux Type B-1 or dispensable Handy Flux Types D or DB should be used with this filler metal.
The properties of a brazed joint are dependent upon numerous factors including base metal properties, joint design, metallurgical interaction between the base metal and the filler metal.
