Welders Choice 59801555 Titanium Brazing Alloy Rod 3/32 in

Product Description

The WELDERS CHOICE 59801555 is a commercially pure titanium brazing alloy rod rated to industry specification ERTi-2. Each rod measures 3/32 inches in diameter and 36 inches in length, and the package weight is 1 pound. This filler metal is engineered for brazing and welding applications where chemical resistance, high-temperature performance, and a strong, ductile joint are required. It is used by certified welders and pipe fitters working with titanium base metals in demanding industrial, aerospace, chemical processing, and high-purity fluid handling environments.

This brazing alloy rod is suited for applications where the base metal is commercially pure titanium or a compatible titanium alloy. Typical uses include joining titanium tubing, fittings, and plate assemblies in chemical processing plants, heat exchangers, and industrial fabrication. The ERTi-2 specification designates a low-interstitial CP titanium filler, making it appropriate for joints that must maintain corrosion resistance and mechanical integrity under elevated temperatures and aggressive media. Professional welders and fabricators working to ASME, AWS, or equivalent codes will find this rod meets standard ERTi-2 filler requirements.

Key Features

• ERTi-2 commercially pure titanium filler specification for consistent alloy chemistry
• Chemical-resistant composition suitable for aggressive media and corrosive environments
• High-temperature resistance for joints exposed to elevated operating conditions
• Good balance of strength and ductility in finished brazed joints
• Standard 3/32 inches diameter for compatibility with common TIG welding setups
• 36 inches rod length provides extended reach and reduced rod changes during work

Compatibility

Designed for use with commercially pure titanium base metals meeting ERTi-2 specification requirements. Suitable for TIG brazing and welding processes on titanium components in industrial and fabrication applications.

Installation Notes

Titanium brazing and welding must be performed by a qualified welder in an inert-gas-shielded environment to prevent oxidation and contamination of the weld zone. Back-purging with argon is typically required when joining titanium tube or pipe. All base metal surfaces should be thoroughly cleaned and degreased before work begins. Follow applicable AWS D1 or ASME Section IX procedures and any site-specific safety requirements for titanium filler metal handling.
