Brazing with aluminum for HVAC/R

In the last three decades, as the HVAC/R industry has converted from copper to aluminum, the most difficult challenge has been how to reliably braze aluminum. Our unique patented solutions have led the industry and become the gold standard for aluminum brazing. As a lightweight, corrosion-resistant alloy, aluminum can be a cost-effective solution for heat exchange coil construction. If you have return bend, transition joints, manifolds, learn more about our innovative solutions including patent pending triangular brazing ring and flux cored brazing rings, and fluxes that solve the unique challenges of aluminum brazing.
