DESCRIPTION:
CDA # 681 is a versitle alloy suited for the joining of steel, copper, copper alloys, nickel, nickel based alloys, and stainless steel where corrosion resistance is not a major requirement. This alloy has gained popularity as an economical alternative to silver based alloys.

Most commonly brazed via torch or induction, it is best to keep the heat cycle to a minimum to prevent vaporizing the zinc. Flux is required when brazing with CDA #681. Engelhard Ultra Flux is will suited for most applications. Also, a vapor type flux introduced through a torch flame is a popular supplement in many production applications.
