Flexbar 15158 | Fixturing Alloy | 1 lb Cake, Melts at 158 °F

Part Number : 15158

Flexbar 15158 is a 1 lb cake of reusable low-temperature Fixturing Alloy that melts at 158 °F. It supports thin-walled parts during machining: instead of shrinking as it solidifies it grows slightly, locking into the workpiece, and afterwards it is melted out in hot water. It is also used as a tube filler for bending, swaging, rolling or drawing tubes.

Key features

  • Melting point of 158 °F, 54 °F below the boiling point of water
  • Slight expansion on solidification grips the part
  • Melted in a cast iron, stainless steel or porcelain-lined pot in a hot water bath
  • Reusable many times with no dross
  • Tube-bending filler that allows plated tubes to be bent without flaking
  • Can reveal pin holes and cracks
