Formulated to break down the tough chromium oxide layer characteristic of stainless steel surfaces, this flux delivers exceptional wetting action, allowing filler alloys to flow evenly and bond tightly for strong, corrosion-resistant joints it is formulated to dissolve the chromium oxide layer to promote improved wetting, and is also very effective when soldering many of the copper-base alloys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePowerful Deoxidizing Action\u003c\/strong\u003e – Actively strips oxides from metal surfaces for cleaner, stronger bonds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExcellent Wetting Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e – Promotes wetting out of the filler alloy for tight, mechanically strong joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWide Working Temperature Range\u003c\/strong\u003e – Effective across an activity range of 150–450°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVersatile Heating Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e – Works with oxy-fuel torch, induction, resistance heating, and furnace soldering methods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEasy Cleanup\u003c\/strong\u003e – Flux residues rinse away quickly with hot or cold water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndustry Standard Compliant\u003c\/strong\u003e – Meets DIN 8511 F-SW12 specification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIdeal Applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis flux is trusted across multiple industries for demanding soldering tasks, including:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFood processing \u0026amp; dairy equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlumbing fixtures \u0026amp; potable water piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAir conditioning \u0026amp; refrigeration systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectrical connector joining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneral engineering \u0026amp; fabrication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHousehold appliance manufacturing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrotechnology and electronics assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCommonly used for soldering dairy utensils, food-handling equipment, plumbing fixtures, potable water containers and piping, and joining electrical connectors, EutecTor 157 is a go-to solution wherever stainless steel and copper-base alloys need to be joined reliably.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThoroughly clean joint surfaces, removing all grease and oxide buildup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlightly round off sharp edges and corners for better flux coverage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply EutecTor 157 flux generously to the entire joint area and filler rod\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecure components in place to maintain proper gap distance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeat using a neutral or slightly carburizing torch flame — heat components evenly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnce flux begins to bubble (indicating working temperature), apply filler alloy with steady heat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAllow the assembly to cool, then remove flux residue with water and brushing as needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAttribute\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLiquid Soldering Flux\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBest Suited For\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStainless steel, brass, bronze, nickel alloys\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTemperature Range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e150°C – 450°C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAvailable Sizes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16 oz bottle, 48 oz TriPak, 454 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDIN 8511 F-SW12\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSafety Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e This is a corrosive flux — always follow proper PPE protocols and manufacturer safety guidelines during handling and application.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"QWS - Welding Supply Solutions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45469882843287,"sku":"FLUX 157-454G","price":199.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0301\/8663\/5399\/files\/157DC-brazing-flux-consumables.jpg?v=1786336124","url":"https:\/\/www.weldingsupply.com.au\/products\/castolin-eutectic-eutector157-flux","provider":"QWS - Welding Supply Solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
