PHYSICAL/CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
Appearance Greenish-Gray Paste
Shelf Life 1 year from manufacture date
pH 3-4
Solder Temp. Range 400-700 F
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Paste Fluxes require only a small amount of flux applied
to the joint. Clean all surfaces before soldering. Apply
small amount of flux inside the fitting and outside of the
pipe. Heat to temperature required for soldering. Do not
overheat the piping. For small diameter piping, direct
the heat near the joint. For large diameter piping, move
the heat around the joint to ensure adequate solder flow
around the circumference of the joint. NOT FOR USE
WITH ALUMINUM, STAINLESS STEEL OR MAGNESIUM.
DO NOT USE ON ELECTRICAL PARTS.
When soldering process is complete, allow joint to cool
undisturbed. Remove any flux residual with a damp
cloth. Do not store H-20
