The flux layer performs the critical function of cleaning and protecting the surface of the parent metal during brazing, and so facilitates the "wetting" and flow of the brazing alloy.
Not only is it important that the proper flux is selected, but also the sufficient flux is applied to the joint area to provide protection throughout the brazing cycle. A further benefit is, that if excess flux is applied in the immediate joint area, oxidation of adjacent surfaces may be prevented, so reducing post-brazing cleaning costs.
As a guide, the flux selected should be active at least 50°C below the solidus and 50°C above the liquidus of the brazing alloy selected.
