PAL 60
PAL 60 can be used on any common molybdenum, stainless steel, tungsten or nickel-based superalloys. The addition of nickel compared to other palladium based alloys improves adherence to these base materials.
Available Forms
Wire, strip, engineered preforms and specialty preforms per customer specification, powder and paste.
Characteristics
PAL 60 is a eutectic alloy, however the higher nickel content results in increased base metal diffusion. As a result this alloy wets more slowly than other eutectic alloys.
Properties
The properties of a brazed joint are dependent upon the base metal, joint design and brazing technique. For controlled atmosphere brazing or vacuum brazing the recommended radial joint clearance for silver base alloys falls within 0.000in – 0.002in (0.00mm – 0.05mm) range.
