Pink gold solders are notoriously difficult to flow because of their high copper content. These new pink gold plumb solders are a step forward, delivering an easier flow (compared to the previous generation of pink gold plumb solders) on top of a better pink color matching. The 14K Pink Plumb solders are available in 2 different tones, a standard pink and a darker tone pink. The 18K Pink Plumb solders are available in 3 different temperature flows, easy, medium and hard. Otto Frei's Plumb Gold Solders are the same gold content as marked. That means, as opposed to repair solders where gold content is purposely lower than the mark for ease of use, these solders contain the plumb standard, or 14k (.585) gold if marked 14Y for example., or 18k (.750) gold if marked 18K. Plumb solders are for manufacturing when gold quality standards must be maintained. Keep in mind that plumb solders flow at higher relative temperatures than repair solders.
