Yellow Ochre Powder 1/2 lb Can

Yellow Ochre Powder is an essential soldering aid for jewelers and metalsmiths who need precise solder flow control. When mixed with water or alcohol, this fine powder forms a paste that acts as a solder resist — preventing solder from flowing into areas where it is not wanted, such as previously soldered joints or the moving parts of a catch. A reliable technique used throughout professional bench work, yellow ochre allows you to build complex assemblies and perform sequential soldering operations without disturbing earlier joints.

Features

• Ideal for protecting previously soldered joints during subsequent soldering steps
• Helps keep moving parts of catches and hinges free of solder
• Supports sequential and multi-stage soldering operations
• Supplied in a convenient 1/2 lb can for bench use

Notes

Mix with water or alcohol to form a paste before applying to areas where solder flow must be restricted. Apply to cool metal before heating. Remove residue thoroughly after soldering is complete.
