Abstract: The invention concerns a method for the manufacturing of a clad sheet product comprising a core layer (6) and at least one cladding layer, the method comprising rolling an assembly of a core layer and at least one cladding layer and reducing the thickness to a desired gauge, the core layer being made of an aluminium alloy, the at least one cladding layer comprising a centre section (2) and at least two edge sections (4, 5) positioned at opposite sides of the centre section (2) along the edges of the at least one cladding layer, the centre section being made of a material being an aluminium alloy or a composite material comprising a matrix of aluminium or an aluminium alloy, the edge sections along (4, 5) the edges being made of a material different from the material of the centre section, wherein the edge sections (4, 5) are cut off during or after the rolling. The invention further concerns a cladding plate useful in the method.

Abstract: The invention concerns a brazing sheet comprising a core layer (5) and a braze cladding, said core layer (5) being aluminium or an aluminium alloy, said braze cladding comprising (a) a flux composite layer (2), which flux composite layer comprises a matrix of aluminium or an aluminium alloy, said matrix containing flux particles; (b) at least one filler alloy layer (1) not containing flux particles; and, (c) an aluminium or aluminium alloy layer (3) not containing flux particles, said layer forming the outermost surface of at least one side of the brazing sheet, wherein the flux composite layer (a) is positioned between said filler alloy layer (b) and said aluminium or aluminium alloy layer (c). The invention further concerns a method for its manufacturing, a cladding plate, use of the brazing sheet and a brazed heat exchanger.

Abstract: A multi layered aluminum alloy brazing sheet including a core material, an intermediate layer on at least one side of the core material, the intermediate layer comprising an Al—Si braze alloy, and a thin covering layer on top of the intermediate layer, The core material and the covering layer have a higher melting temperature than the Al—Si braze alloy. The covering layer includes Bi 0.01 to 1.0 wt-%, Mg?0.01 wt-%, Mn?1.0 wt-%, Cu?1.2 wt-%, Fe?1.0 wt-%, Si?4.0 wt-%, Ti?0.1 wt-%, Zr, Cr, V and/or Sc in total ?0.2%, and unavoidable impurities each in amounts less than 0.05 wt-%, and a total impurity content of less than 0.2 wt-%, the balance including aluminium. A heat exchanger including the alloy brazing sheet.

Abstract: The invention refers to an aluminium alloy, a clad or unclad material for brazed products containing said alloy as a core, as well as a method of producing materials to be used in brazed products from said alloy. The material is suitable for controlled atmosphere brazing (CAB) using fluxes that manage higher Mg levels in the materials. The alloy is intended as a fin-stock material for brazed products, such as heat exchangers.
