Re: [Harp-L] solder on steel reeds



By steel you really mean stainless steel, correct? Normal solder and fluxes do not work well with stainless. I've used a product that I think was called MG-20. It is a silver bearing low temperature food grade solder specifically designed for stainless applications. It's also very high strength. It comes with an acid flux. I bought it at Prax Air and they have outlets in the Phoenix area so you will be able to find it. I'll try to remember to look for the solder later today to make sure I have the name right. It's expensive but it really works well on stainless. fjm
