Bluefire JCuP brazing rods are an exceptional solution for HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical repair needs. These USA-made rods are classified as AWS A58 Class: BCuP-2 brazing alloys and have a phosphor (P) content of 6.6-7.4% and copper (Cu) content for the remainder.

The composition of this brazing alloy is close to eutectic crystal, making it self-fluxing. This means that there is no need to use brazing flux when soldering copper to copper or copper to brass joints. However, for brazing brass to brass parts, it is recommended to use Bluefire JFB-102 brazing flux for the best results.

Each tube of Bluefire JCuP brazing rods contains 21 sticks of 14" long brazing rods, with a total weight of 0.5 (1/2) pound. This valued pack provides excellent savings for customers.

The brazing rods have a solidus temperature of 1310°F / 710°C and a liquidus temperature of 1508°F / 820°C. The recommended joint clearance is 0.002"/0.007", and the fluid rating is 5. Unlike other brazing rods, JCuPB brazing rods contain lesser phosphors, resulting in much better plastic performances and slightly higher melting points.

Bluefire JCuP brazing rods are versatile, making them a popular and economic solution for a variety of welding needs, including gas welding, MIG and TIG welding, contact welding, HF brazing, and some furnace welding. They are perfect for brazing copper to copper or brass and bronze joints in A/C, freezer, evaporator, heat exchange, water heater, and other similar applications. However, they cannot be used for welding iron or steel parts.

All of Bluefire's brazing alloys, including JCuP brazing rods, are manufactured under the highest quality control standards. These brazing rods are equivalent to HARRIS 0 PN0620FMPOP brazing rods but at a more affordable price.
