Arctic Hayes Flux Brush

Arctic Hayes Flux Brush

The Arctic Hayes Flux Brush is an indispensable, basic tool for any professional plumber performing capillary soldering. This simple yet essential item is designed for the precise and hygienic application of flux to the ends of copper pipe and the inside of fittings. Proper flux application is crucial for the success of a soldered joint, ensuring the solder flows correctly via capillary action for a permanent, leak-proof seal.

Essential Tool for Perfect Soldering
Precision Application: The brush head is sized and shaped to allow for an even, thin coating of flux both inside fittings and on the pipe surface, which is key to preventing excess flux from contaminating the system.

Hygienic and Clean: Using a dedicated flux brush keeps the flux free from contaminants (like debris or oils) that can be introduced by using fingers or old cloths.

Trade Durability: Built to withstand repeated use in a demanding environment, making it a staple in every plumber's toolbox.

Cost-Effective: A low-cost, high-impact tool that directly improves the quality and reliability of every soldered copper joint.
