Precious Metals for Thermal Systems
Industrial Brazing Alloys Supplier
Precious metals play a vital role in the heating and cooling sector, where systems must withstand constant temperature cycling, high pressures, and long-term operational stress. Cookson Industrial supplies high-purity silver brazing alloys and precision-engineered components used in boilers, HVAC units, refrigeration circuits, and industrial cooling systems.
Our materials provide strong, leak-free joints, excellent thermal transfer, and reliable performance in demanding thermal environments.
Silver Brazing Alloys
Brazing is one of the most essential joining processes in the heating and cooling industry. Our silver-based brazing alloys – available bare or flux-coated – are engineered for smooth flow, strong metallurgical bonding, and long-term pressure resistance.
They deliver consistent performance in:
- Heat exchangers
- Refrigeration coils
- Condenser and evaporator assemblies
- Boiler and burner components
- High-pressure copper and stainless-steel pipework
Cookson alloys provide clean capillary action and durable sealing with high-purity silver options (flux-coated or bare) that ensure strong mechanical integrity, reliable flow, and compatibility with copper, brass, and stainless steel while preventing leaks, joint fatigue, and corrosion.
Heat Waves & Cooling Channels
In addition to alloys and amalgam, Cookson Industrial manufactures a complete range of precious metal solders for modern dental laboratories. Designed for strength, precision, and clean joint integrity, our solders deliver dependable performance across crown and bridge applications.
- Strong, clean joint integrity for long-lasting restorations
- Excellent flow performance and consistent melting behaviour
- Lead-free and cadmium-free options available
- Proven biocompatibility for patient safety
- Controlled melting ranges for predictable results
- Reliable performance in every batch
