Nominal Chemical
Composition
INTRODUCTION
Aufhauser GoldAlloy BV-35 is a special alloy for vacuum brazing.
APPLICATIONS
GoldAlloy BV-35 is used on any ferrous and non-ferrous alloys. Provides good wetting on metallized ceramics, including molybdenum-manganese metallized. Good for Kovar alloys. Suitable in brazing ceramics to metals. Typical applications include vacuum and electronic tubes, automotive components. GoldAlloy BV-35 is used in vacuum, inert or reducing atmosphere.
