Kapp Lunar Flux Paste 3 oz Jar$29.50High temperature 550-800°F / 288-427°C flux Paste for Aluminum, Zinc, & Diecast. - 3 oz jar VIEW PRODUCT
Kapp Lunar™ Flux is a white paste for the high temperature soldering of Aluminum and Zinc Diecast alloys. It is a reaction-type flux with 70% active ingredients dispersed in alcohol. The paste stays where it is applied to simplify the soldering process. Kapp Lunar™ Flux has considerable shelf life stability, as the suspending agents prevent separation and re-crystallization of the active ingredients. The performance of the paste in depositing Zinc on Aluminum and Diecast surfaces is also consistent over time.
Applications
- Higher temperature soldering of Aluminum and Zinc Diecast parts such as:
- Automobile hardware
- Marine parts such as propellers
- Works well on all common Aluminum and Zinc Diecast alloys
- Recommended soldering alloys:
- Alumite™
- KappAloy30™
- Higher Zinc content Tin-Zinc solders
- 50% Tin (Sn) - 50% Lead (Pb)
- Any alloy/application for Aluminum soldering which demands working temperature range of 550-800°F (288-427°C).
- CAUTION: WHEN USED WITH ALUMINUM, TOXIC FUMES WILL BE GIVEN OFF. PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE PRECAUTIONS AND PROCEDURES ON THE SAFETY DATA SHEET .
