Material Solutions for the
Automotive Industry
Prince & Izant's automotive manufacturing customers trust the quality of our comprehensive brazing product inventory and innovative custom solutions for their application needs. We manufacture copper, silver, and aluminum brazing alloys that are available in various compositions and forms, such as brazing paste, brazing rings, brazing preforms, and our patented ChannelFlux product line.
Our copper brazing pastes (CuPASTETM), most used in the automotive manufacturing industry, are suitable for joining most ferrous and non-ferrous metal components by furnace brazing. Our copper paste product line is available in high purity copper, copper-nickel, and copper iron for wide gap brazing and copper-copper oxide. We have developed various vehicles to meet both high and low dew point furnace atmospheres as required.
Along with our dedication to product quality, we remain committed to adding value and providing innovative solutions that help our customers uniquely differentiate themselves within their value chain. We consistently innovate and invest in people and equipment to better serve our customers.
