Abstract: Provided is a flux-cored ring of a tubular brazing material enclosing flux that is formed into a ring by abutting both end portions in an extending direction of the tubular brazing material against each other. The flux-cored ring includes: in one of the both end portions of the brazing material, a pair of protruded portions protruding toward the other of the both end portions of the brazing material and opposed to each other in a direction orthogonal to the extending direction of the brazing material; and in the other of the both end portions of the brazing material, a pair of recessed portions fitting onto the protruded portions and opposed to each other in the direction orthogonal to the extending direction of the brazing material.

Abstract: The present invention provides a flux for brazing aluminum-based materials, the flux being capable of brazing an A5052 alloy or the like containing 1.5 wt % or more of magnesium even when an Al—Si eutectic alloy (Si content: 7 to 12 wt %; A4343 alloy, A4047 alloy; melt starting temperature: about 577 to 615° C.) is used as a brazing material. Specifically, the present invention provides a flux for brazing aluminum-based materials, the flux comprising LiF, AlF3, and CsF, and the composition ratio of the three components being adjusted to within the range enclosed by four lines: line C connecting (30, 0, 70) and (30, 70, 0), line (1) connecting (31, 33.5, 35.5) and (51.5, 22.5, 26), line (2) connecting (32.5, 28.5, 39) and (49, 21.5, 29.5), and line (3) connecting (57.5, 42.5, 0) and (57.5, 0, 42.5), excluding the points on line C, in the triangular coordinates indicating LiF mol %, AlF3 mol %, and CsF mol %.
