ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a brazing sheet product including a core metal sheet (1), on at least one side of the core metal sheet (1) a clad layer (2) made of an aluminium brazing alloy comprising silicon in an amount in the range of 4 to 14% by weight, and on at least one outersurface of the clad layer (2) a layer comprising iron or iron alloy (4), and on the outersurface of the layer comprising iron or iron alloy (4) a further layer (3) including a metal X, whereby X is selected from the group consisting of tin, zinc, bismuth, indium, antimony, strontium, titanium, manganese, copper, or combinations of two or more thereof. Also, disclosed is a method of manufacturing such a brazing product, and a brazed assembly including at least one component made of this brazing product.
