Abstract
Fluxes for use in brazing aluminum-based alloy pieces are disclosed. One is a flux which comprises 70 to 90% wt % K.sub.2 SiF.sub.6 and 30 to 10 wt % AlF.sub.3. The other is a flux which comprises 98.5 to 94 wt % base composition which includes K.sub.2 SiF.sub.6 whose amount is 70 to 90 wt % of the base composition and AlF.sub.3 whose amount is 30 to 10 wt % of the base composition; 0.5 to 3 wt % LiF; and 1 to 3 wt % NaF. In order to facilitate the application of the flux to the pieces to be brazed, polybutene is used as a dispersing agent.
