BrazeLet^® Ni3DW-9007

The nickel-based brazing alloy BrazeLet BNi3 provides high strength joints when brazing in vacuum or protective atmospheres (hydrogen or argon). As it is Cr-free it is less sensitive to marginal furnace atmospheres. The brazing alloy is typically used for brazing nickel-based superalloys and stainless steel components where high elevated temperature strength is important, such as turbine vanes or honeycomb seals. The alloy also has good oxidation resistance. Joint properties can be further improved by employing a diffusion hold after brazing.

The water-based brazing paste BrazeLet Ni3DW-9007 can be used for dispensing applications, typically found on heat exchanger inlet and outlet tubes, housing to core joints and hole plates to tube joints. It dries quickly and sticks to all bevel and vertical positions without the need of pre-drying. It can be easily removed with water. The paste has a very low polymer content and the binder is specially designed to decompose cleanly at low temperatures, as to minimize need for furnace maintenance, while preventing pre-oxidation of brazing filler metal powder in marginal furnace atmospheres. It shows extremely good residue-free brazing results in both vacuum and continuous belt furnace brazing. 

BrazeLet Ni3DW-9007 properties allow reliable application in a wide speed range as a result of the dispensing equipment / automatization as well as the needle diameter. The paste can be delivered in cartridges for use in automated applications or different sized cans. It can be frozen and brought back to room temperature for use without any damage to its properties.
