Connecting sleeves for soldering into the steam boiler with two different fine threads. The soldering connection sleeves are inserted into a hole with a 10 mm diameter and can then be soldered hard or soft. The beeches are made of brass MS58. Thanks to the soldering connection sleeves, the parts attached to the steam boiler have a sufficiently stable and long screw-in thread. The solder connection sleeve M6x0.75 fits our boiler accessories.The solder connection sleeve e M8x0.75 fits our safety valve with weight  The socket dimensions are always the same: Soldering diameter: 10mm Bundle diameter: 12mm Height: 10mm

This safety valve is made of brass. It is significantly smaller than the weight safety valve. This makes it suitable for smaller boilers or steam systems. The safety valve is loaded with a stainless ball and spring. The screw-in thread of the pressure relief valve is M6x0.75. Our soldering sockets are best suited, which are soldered into the boiler in order to subsequently screw in the safety valve. Under no circumstances should a steam boiler be operated without a safety valve. The safety valve prevents the maximum pressure from being exceeded. The safety valve is set to 4bar, but can be adjusted.  Dimensions of safety valve:  Height with thread: 37mm  Height without thread: 31mm  Wrench size: 10 mm The matching Solder sleeve M6x0.75 can be found here.

We have silver braided bars with a silver content of 55% (L-Ag55) with a length of 500mm. Because of the relatively low melting point of this silver braze, the model builder in the field of technical model building is almost exclusively concerned. The working temperature of this hard solder is 630 ° C. The silver as an alloying component in the solder does not only reduce the working temperature, but also improves the flow properties. Furthermore, silver has the positive property of combining well with other metals. For brazing brass and steel, silver solder flux is essential. The low working temperature of the silver solder bars allows the thermal load to be as low as possible for the processed material. It is important not to heat the workpieces too much, especially in the case of brass. In combination with our silver solder flux you achieve with these silver solder always optimal results. The silver braided bars can be purchased from us in the shop in 2 different diameters. For fine soldering as it often happens in technical model construction we recommend the 1mm rods. The 1mm silver braided bars are easy to carry with the hand and can be easily melted with small burners. For larger parts we prefer the 1.5 mm silver solder bars. With these rods you get faster material to the soldering point if needed. What can be brazed?The following materials can be combined with silver solder: brass, copper, gunmetal, gray cast iron, rusting steels and stainless steel. A combination of the materials among each other is easily possible with this silver braze solder. If the material is not known to you, it is always recommended to solder a piece to the sample beforehand. This allows you to determine whether the materials can be combined with the silver braze.Instructions Brazing with silver solder If you have never worked on silver solder and you are not sure how the exact solder brazing procedure is with silver solder, we can help you before you buy the silver solder. We have created a guide for you in our Bengs Modellbaumagazin on the topic "Brazing with silver solder". Here you can find out what you need and have to consider if you want to solder 2 components with silver solder. Tip: Flux residues and discoloration of the material can be optimally eliminated with our satin brushes or abrasive fleece!Characteristics of the silver solder bars500 mm long. 1mm or 1.5mm diameter Silver solder bars L-Ag55 (55% silver) Working temperature 630 ° C Bengs Modellbau has used this silver solder bars for years.
