Brazing Alloys for Carbide Tool Inserts

Also known as trimetal brazing strips, these alloys have silver with nickel alloy sides and a copper core.
BAg-24 alloys work well with 300 series stainless steel. These alloys don’t contain any cadmium, so they’re safer to use than brazing alloys with cadmium and help meet industry regulations.
