BrazeLet® Ni2P-9003

Nickel-based brazing alloy

The nickel-based brazing alloy BrazeLet BNi2 provides high strength when brazing stainless steel material in vacuum or protective atmospheres (hydrogen or argon). It provides excellent high temperature strength and oxidation resistance. Joint properties can be further improved by employing a diffusion hold after brazing.  It is a versatile brazing filler metal used in aerospace, automotive and industrial applications such as heat exchangers and turbines.

The brazing paste BrazeLet Ni2P-9003 is typically in use for printing thin paste layers of about 0.05 – 0.2 mm on flat plates, on top of structured plates or fins by use of screens or stencils. A typical application is the printing on parts for flat heat exchangers. The use of rubber squeegees is recommended. Reliable printing requires a precise positioning fixture combined with the use of vacuum table or clamping device. Typical printing speed is 300 mm/s. Thin printing lines should have a width of >0.3 mm, small dots diameter should be >1 mm. The solvent based brazing paste BrazeLet Ni2P-9003 increases productivity wherever drying of the paste is an issue. The paste has no settlement, and no stirring is required in the equipment. However, when opening a can from stock it is always recommended to stir the paste.

The printed parts can be dried with standard drying process (hot air) at 120 – 170 °C. The drying time varies depending on thermal mass, design of the parts and the used furnace and needs to be established.
