How Blowpipe Solder Can Benefit You

What is blowpipe solder?

Our industry leading blowpipe solder is available in a wide range of high-quality fusible alloys. These alloys are mainly based on tin and lead, as well as others where required. The low melting point is essential so you can use these fusible alloys for a variety of uses.

What blowpipe solder is used for:

The main and most recognisable characteristic of blowpipe solder is its low melting point and ease of use. This has its benefits as it makes this alloy suitable for many applications such as:-

• Tube bending
• Wiping and joining of lead pipes
• Radio therapy shielding
• Optical lens grinding
• Press tools
• Safety devices
• Stained glass work

The listed applications are best when using blowpipe solder. Time and energy are saved as you don’t need as much heat to melt to the solder when you’re joining lead pipes or tube bending etc.
