Utilm 14-216 Paste Soldering Flux 1/2 Pound with Brush

Product Description

The UTILM 14-216 is a 1/2 pound paste soldering flux formulated with ammonium chloride for general-purpose soldering across a wide range of base metals. The paste consistency delivers controlled application to joints, removing surface oxides and conditioning the metal so solder bonds reliably. A brush is included for direct, precise application. This flux is used in plumbing, light metal fabrication, and mechanical assembly work. Licensed plumbers and trade technicians are the primary installers, though experienced DIYers also use this product for copper pipe and sheet metal work.

The 14-216 suits general-purpose soldering tasks in residential and light commercial plumbing as well as metal fabrication and mechanical assembly environments. Its ammonium chloride formulation makes it effective on copper, brass, and other common base metals encountered in typical trade work. The included brush allows flux to be applied directly from the container without additional tools, keeping the workflow efficient on the job site or in the shop.

Key Features

• Ammonium chloride formulation removes surface oxides for reliable solder adhesion
• Paste consistency allows controlled, targeted application to joint surfaces
• 1/2 pound container size suitable for frequent field or bench use
• Brush applicator included for direct use without separate tooling
• Compatible with copper, brass, and a broad range of common base metals

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose paste soldering flux suitable for use on copper, brass, and other common base metals in plumbing, metal fabrication, and mechanical assembly applications.

Installation Notes

Paste flux is typically applied by a licensed plumber or qualified tradesperson following applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC. Ensure the work area is properly ventilated before soldering, as flux fumes can be hazardous. Clean and dry all joint surfaces before applying flux, and wipe away excess flux residue after the joint cools to prevent long-term corrosion. Do not use this flux with materials or in applications for which it has not been rated.
