Fluxes & Fluxing Equipment

Flux is a substance which must be applied to the lead or copper before soldering to promote the fusion of the solder to the metal. The flux removes the oxides from the surface of the metal, which forms there by exposure to air.

Johnson's Liquid Soldering Flux, 3.5 oz.
A very high quality flux. The manufacturer claims "this is the one flux that will save you more time and money than any other". This is because Johnson's Soldering Fluid enables all solders to flow at their lowest possible temperature, yet it protects your work at higher temperatures without burning away. Your solder joints will be stronger and less solder will drop off your work. 3.5 oz bottle.
$5.14, 6 for $27.78, 12 for $49.32

No-Spill Bottle Holder (Flux/Patina/Oil)
Someone has finally solved the problem of the capsizing flux bottle. You leave it for a moment, with the brush sticking out of it, and DRAT! the stupid thing has flipped over, spilling the oily contents all over your workbench, kitchen table, the sofa, or wherever it is that you perform your stained glass activities. Built wide and low to the ground, like a 1949 Hudson Terraplane, this device will hold a flux bottle, patina bottle or cutting oil bottle. You can probably find other uses for it around the house, if you are at all like most of our resourceful customers. Why not drop us a line if you have a suggestion?. (Flux bottle not included.)
