Hi Wormy...
Why do you want to silver solder a valve on... why not simply solder the valve on using a lead-free solder and regular flux? What exactly is the application here? Silver soldering valves onto large copper pipe is quite tricky, but not so hard on smaller pipe sizes. Here is a video on silver soldering using a copper pipe and a ferrule: If you do silver solder, as seen in the video, clean the valve and the pipe super well and then apply a light film of the flux... dip the silver solder in the flux as well just prior to applying the silver solder to the valve/pipe for best result. Let us know if you need more info. OK? Mark |
