bercoweld S3 (CuSi3Mn)

Range of application

Silicon alloyed copper welding filler metal with good flowing properties – suitable for joining of OF-copper and copper materials subject to high strain– easily workable – welding seams without pores. For TIG welding of large work pieces preheating to 300°C is recommended.
