We are trying to silver solder 660 Bronze to 1020/1018 steel. My welder tried using Safety-Silv #56 rod at first, but we got pitting in the weld, particularly on the steel side of the weld bead.
We want to try using Safety-Silv #45T in our next trial, since the company claims it is designed for copper, brass, and steel. Before we order this silver rod I'd like to hear any input or opinions from anyone who has done this kind of soldering.
I'd also like to know any recommendations for flux types. Can anyone help me out?
We are in a bit of a rush with this, as we have an order of #56 rod on hold until we can determine a better alternative.
Anyone's advise will be greatly appreciated, and thank you kindly in advance!
Sincerely,
Mitch Yurkovich
