Thread: Using acetylene with silver solder
07/10/2012 11:52:16

Hi Ianmac,

I agree with Richard, I also use Oxy/Acetylene for those last little bit of additional heat areas, and its really important not to touch the silver solder with the O/A flame.

Normally once the flux has run properly and the heat is well into the job, the ss will flash into the joint without any directed heat at all, but as Richard says, you really do have to keep your wits about you.

How about getting a couple of bits of copper and having a practice?

For your current job, a re clean and acid pickle, reflux and reheat will more than likely help to give a better joint.

Lofty
