Silver solder sheets are used in Jewelry making, in repair work such as sizing and mounting, for assembling silver jewelry, rings and components.,
Silver solder comes in 3 grades… the grades are the relative temperature flow points between one and the other. The softer the solder the less content of silver with a lower melting temperature. (Each piece is 1"W x 4-53/64" L - 0.010" Thickness).

Technical Information:
Repairs: Lower temperature solder is recommended for repair work, especially on pieces that may have been reworked and a high temperature solder may cause a problem.
Assembly Work: In multiple component soldering use the Higher Temperature Solder first, then a medium grade and finally to a soft the lower melting point. Production: High temperature solder, the Hard grade should be used, with the higher silver content, better match of color and a stronger bond. Allowing future repairs to be performed with the softer solders.
