This Joint Australian/New Zealand Standard was prepared by Joint Technical Committee WD-002, Welding Consumables. It was approved on behalf of the Council of Standards Australia on 19 September 2005 and on behalf of the Council of Standards New Zealand on 16 September 2005. This Standard was published on 25 November 2005.
The following are represented on Committee WD-002:
Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry
Bureau of Steel Manufacturers of Australia
Business New Zealand
CSIRO Manufacturing and Infrastructure Technology
Welding Technology Institute of Australia
Keeping Standards up-to-date
Standards are living documents which reflect progress in science, technology and systems. To maintain their currency, all Standards are periodically reviewed, and new editions are published. Between editions, amendments may be issued. Standards may also be withdrawn. It is important that readers assure themselves they are using a current Standard, which should include any amendments which may have been published since the Standard was purchased.
Detailed information about joint Australian/New Zealand Standards can be found by visiting the Standards Web Shop at www.standards.com.au or Standards New Zealand web site at www.standards.co.nz and looking up the relevant Standard in the on-line catalogue.
Alternatively, both organizations publish an annual printed Catalogue with full details of all current Standards. For more frequent listings or notification of revisions, amendments and withdrawals, Standards Australia and Standards New Zealand offer a number of update options. For information about these services, users should contact their respective national Standards organization.
We also welcome suggestions for improvement in our Standards, and especially encourage readers to notify us immediately of any apparent inaccuracies or ambiguities. Please address your comments to the Chief Executive of either Standards Australia or Standards New Zealand at the address shown on the back cover.
This Standard was issued in draft form for comment as DR 05342.

PREFACE
This Standard was prepared by the Joint Standards Australia/Standards New Zealand
Committee, Welding Consumables, to supersede AS 1167.1—1993, Welding and brazing—
Filler metals, Part 1: Filler metal for brazing and braze welding.
The objective of this Standard is to specify requirements for brazing filler metal.
The main changes in this edition have been driven by the increasing international concern at
the risks of cadmium exposure and strategies at the global and Australian levels, and were
aimed at cadmium minimization. Hence, the deletion of nine alloys containing cadmium
(A4 to A7, A9 to A12 and A17) and the addition of six cadmium free alloys (A18 to A23)
in Table 1.
Other significant technical changes included the following:
(a) Deletion of alloys with very little usage (A1, A3, A13, A14 and B5).
(b) Reduction of cadmium impurity levels, in Tables 1 and 2, from 0.05 to 0.01%.
(c) Updating of melting ranges to show true liquidus values, and addition of Indicative
Brazing Temperature Ranges in Table 2.
(d) Deletion of alloy R4343 from Table 4, and updating Beryllium content from 0.0008%
to 0.0003% to align with ISO Standards.
In addition, Appendix A has been fully revised to update references to current equivalent
EN, AWS and ISO Standards.
Mechanical properties of brazed joints are not covered in this Standard but will generally be
found in the relevant application Standards.
The term ‘informative’ has been used in this Standard to define the application of the
appendix to which it applies. An ‘informative’ appendix is only for information and
guidance.

STANDARDS AUSTRALIA/STANDARDS NEW ZEALAND
Australian/New Zealand Standard
Welding and brazing—Filler metals
Part 1: Filler metal for brazing and braze welding
1 SCOPE
This Standard specifies requirements for filler metals in all forms for brazing and braze
welding processes. It includes requirements for chemical composition and analysis, packing
and marking. In addition, a standard form of colour coding designed to be mutually
acceptable to manufacturers and users has been recommended for identification purposes.
NOTE: In this Standard, the term brazing is used to imply both processes.
2 REFERENCED DOCUMENTS
The following documents are referred to in this Standard:
AS
1674 Safety in welding and allied processes
1674.1 Part 1: Fire precautions
1674.2 Part 2: Electrical
2700 Colour standards for general purposes
2812 Welding, brazing and cutting of metals—Glossary of terms
ANSI/AWS
A5.8 Specification for brazing filler metal
EN
1044 Brazing—Filler metals
ISO
3677 Filler materials for self soldering, brazing and braze welding—Designation
WTIA
TN 07 Health and safety in welding Technical Note 7
Fume minimization guidelines
3 DEFINITIONS
For the purpose of this Standard, the definitions given in AS 2812 apply.
4 CHEMICAL COMPOSITION AND ANALYSIS
The chemical composition of the brazing alloy, determined in accordance with the relevant
methods of the appropriate volume of the current book of ANSI/ASTM Standards, or in
accordance with other methods that are not less accurate, shall comply with the appropriate
requirements given in Tables 1 to 4.
NOTE: Appendix A gives Australian alloy designations and their European, American, and ISO
equivalents.

5 IDENTIFICATION
Individual items of filler metal shall be identified by either embossing or colour coding.
Where colour coding is used, the colours employed should follow the colour guidance given
in Tables 1 to 4.
6 FORM AND SIZE
Specification of the required form and size is a matter for the purchaser at the time of
placing the order. If required, filler rods may be supplied coated with a suitable brazing
flux.
7 PACKING

Standards Australia
Standards Australia is an independent company, limited by guarantee, which prepares and publishes
most of the voluntary technical and commercial standards used in Australia. These standards are
developed through an open process of consultation and consensus, in which all interested parties are
invited to participate. Through a Memorandum of Understanding with the Commonwealth
government, Standards Australia is recognized as Australia’s peak national standards body.
Standards New Zealand
The first national Standards organization was created in New Zealand in 1932. The Standards
Council of New Zealand is the national authority responsible for the production of Standards.
Standards New Zealand is the trading arm of the Standards Council established under the Standards
Act 1988.
Australian/New Zealand Standards
Under a Memorandum of Understanding between Standards Australia and Standards New Zealand,
Australian/New Zealand Standards are prepared by committees of experts from industry,
governments, consumers and other sectors. The requirements or recommendations contained
in published Standards are a consensus of the views of representative interests and also take
account of comments received from other sources. They reflect the latest scientific and industry
experience. Australian/New Zealand Standards are kept under continuous review after publication
and are updated regularly to take account of changing technology.
International Involvement
Standards Australia and Standards New Zealand are responsible for ensuring that the Australian
and New Zealand viewpoints are considered in the formulation of international Standards and that
the latest international experience is incorporated in national and Joint Standards. This role is vital
in assisting local industry to compete in international markets. Both organizations are the national
members of ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International
Electrotechnical Commission).
