Harris Safety-Silv-45 Brazing Rod

This Harris brazing rod uses a Safety-Silv-45 alloy containing 45 percent silver for high-strength joints. Each rod measures 3/32 inch in diameter and 18 inches long. The bare rods come in a pack of three for workshop use.

Melting range 1225 to 1370 degrees F

The alloy reaches solidus at 1225 degrees F and becomes fully liquid at 1370 degrees F. This melting range allows controlled flow during sustained heating without overheating the base metal. Operators can maintain a consistent temperature window for repeatable results.

Replaces lower-silver brazing alloys

Upgrading from lower-silver alloys improves joint strength and ductility where vibration or thermal cycling occur. The higher silver content reduces the risk of brittle fractures in demanding service conditions. The jump is worth it when joint reliability outweighs material cost.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 3/32 in rod generate during a full-day brazing job?

The Safety-Silv-45 rod melts between 1,225 °F solidus and 1,370 °F liquidus, so the torch — not the rod — determines heat output and runtime temperature.

What torch setup must I already own to use the 18 in Safety-Silv-45 rods?

You need an oxy-fuel torch capable of reaching at least 1,370 °F and a tip suited for 3/32 in diameter filler metal.

Will the AWS BAg-5 alloy flow properly on the older copper fittings I plan to keep?

Yes, the 45 % silver alloy is designed for copper and copper-alloy joints, provided the surfaces are clean and fluxed before heating.
