Leone Orthodontic Soldering Flux 30 g — Clean, strong joints
Référence: H04367
Orthodontic soldering flux Leone — 30 g
In orthodontic soldering procedures, flux plays a key role in ensuring strong, durable joints. Leone soldering flux helps prepare and protect metal surfaces, ensuring perfect adhesion and clean, homogeneous joints.
What is soldering flux?
Flux is a chemical compound applied to metal surfaces before fusion. Its functions are to:
- Clean surfaces by removing oxides and contaminants.
- Prevent oxidation during heating by forming a protective barrier.
- Improve solder flow for even metal distribution.
Proper surface preparation reduces joint defects and improves long-term solder strength.
Advantages of Leone orthodontic flux
- High compatibility: suitable for orthodontic metals such as stainless steel.
- Easy application: fast and precise placement on soldering areas.
- Thermal resistance: remains effective at high soldering temperatures.
- Homogeneous joints: promotes uniform, strong solder connections.
Laboratory applications
- Soldering of orthodontic metal appliances.
- Improved wetting of filler metal on joints.
- Repair and adjustment work requiring clean solder joints.
Use only the necessary amount of flux to minimize residue removal.
Directions for use
- Surface preparation: clean and degrease all metal parts.
- Flux application: apply a thin layer to the soldering area.
- Soldering: proceed according to your laboratory protocol.
- Final cleaning: remove flux residues after cooling.

FAQ — Orthodontic soldering flux
What is the purpose of soldering flux in orthodontics?
Orthodontic soldering flux cleans metal surfaces, prevents oxidation during heating and improves filler metal flow. This results in stronger, more homogeneous solder joints with improved adhesion and reduced defects.
How should Leone flux be applied?
Clean and degrease the surfaces, apply a thin layer of flux, solder according to your lab protocol, and remove residues after cooling for a clean finish.
Is this flux compatible with stainless steel?
Yes. Leone flux is designed for orthodontic metal appliances and is suitable for stainless steel soldering when used under appropriate laboratory conditions.
Why must flux residues be removed?
Removing flux residues ensures a clean surface, improves finishing and polishing, and allows proper visual inspection of the solder joint.
