How to braze with 15% Brazing Rings:
Using abrasive paper or brush, clean all the surface of contact to be brazed, in both the tube and the coupling, make sure there is no contaminants residue or debris.
Insert the brazing ring into the coupling and then insert the tube and make sure it makes contact with the ring. CouplingSÜAnd fitting with a stop are preferable.
Heat the tube and fitting uniformly. Oxy/Acetylene, Air/Acetylene, and Propane or MAPP torches can be used. With copper tubes no flux is needed, for other metal like brass, you need to apply flux.
Once the ring melts, the silver alloy will flow out by capillary action and will be visible at the top of the joint leaving a uniform fillet around.
