DETAILS
Bridgit® Burn Resistant Paste soldering Flux is formulated to be active over a wide temperature range. This makes it an excellent choice for most all solder compositions. It is ideal for use where a longer heating cycle is required as it resists thermal decomposition. Bridget stays active to 800◦F. This range covers soldering temperatures required by most lead-free solders. Bridgit® flux is burn resistant, reducing carbon formation that may result in leaks. The flux is unexcelled for use in soldering copper, brass, bronze, galvanized and other plumbing fittings. This flux works extremely well with Bridgit® lead-free solder in potable water systems and is a good choice with other solder compositions. Complies with the EU Reach & RoHS directive.
