Hi all.
I have never used silver solder, and am wondering for what applications the different solders are used.
I see there are rods of 1%, 2%, 5% and some other contents right up to 50%
I gather ss can be used variously for joining a range of metals including copper, steel, stainless steel, silver, gold, cast iron, but I haven't been able to determine which different rods match up with joining different metals.
The chart on pp 34/35 of the document on this link (those are the original document page numbers, not of the pdf)
essentially implies that almost all the rods that company sells, can be used to join all metals! Which is interesting, but gives no indication as to why you would use one rod instead of another.
Question:
What difference silver solder rods have members here used and for what purposes?
Thanks
