Contex anti-flux paste for precious metal soldering, 50 ml

Product information "Contex anti-flux paste for precious metal soldering, 50 ml"

Contex is an anti-flux paste for precious metal soldering. It proves particularly suitable in all cases where precision soldering is necessary.

Precious metal areas covered with Contex will not be affected by the solder. This avoids unintentional spatter of the solder onto areas close to the soldering seam.

Suitability

Contex is for use in goldsmith work in conjunction with all red gold alloys and with palladium-bearing white gold alloys, but not with nickel-bearing white gold alloys.

Usage

Cover precious metal areas which need protection against spreading of solder with Contex by applying a medium layer with a thin instrument.
Heat object slightly (for instance with a small flame) until a dry, adhesive layer has formed.
If necessary, place object to be soldered in soldering investment.
Then apply flux onto the soldering gap which was kept free of Contex.
Solder in the usual way.
Close Contex container tightly after use
