For most job shop and maintenance welders who do a variety of welding on different types of materials on a daily basis and do not necessarily work on stainless steel all the time, I can tell you one thing from experience that a one pound can will last for a very long time.  That is why I am offering you an opportunity to purchase this same great product in 2oz., 4oz., 6oz., and 8oz. sealed Mylar standup pouch, and this will provide the opportunity for you to purchase only what you need, and use the savings on other necessary welding paraphernalia.
We're all looking for ways to save money in our welding businesses, and one of the best ways is to cut costs of consumables!  I have been in the welding business over 40 years and have welded many different types of metals and discovered Solar Flux type B in 1983.  As a result I began to take on stainless steel welding jobs that I otherwise could not have successfully repaired.  The Solar Flux more than pays for itself on each and every job that normally requires back purging, and protection for the backside of the weld.
Good Welding,
Steve

I have been using this Welding Process on Stainless Steel Welding for over 30 yrs.
This is one of those trade secrets that will help you make better welds and increase your profits!
From experience as a specialty welder, I believe every welder who ever welds on Stainless Steel should have a bag of Solar Flux Type B in his or her toolbox!
The shielding gas or the flux in the electrode only protect the front of the weld.  In thin wall material, or when making the root pass in thicker material, you must either use Solar Flux or Back Purge with an inert gas to drive out the oxygen, float out unwanted oxides, and dissipate the heat on the back of the weld.  If not, you get a sugary porous weld and burn through.  The front of the weld will look good, but you'll see the difference when you look at the back side.
Solar Flux has been producing X-Ray quality welds in Stainless Steel for over 70 years.  It is often preferred over argon back purging gas for its ease of use, speed, simplicity and low  cost.  Other variables being the same, either Solar Flux or backing gas will produce the same quality weld.
Solar Flux is a very fine powder which when mixed with alcohol, or the preferred pure methanol, (methyl alcohol): Remove a small amount and mix into a thick paste just before use.  It can be used with any gas or arc welding process, ie; TIG, MIG, SMAW.  It comes in two types:  Type B for Stainless Steel and/or High Chromium Steel; and Type I for high (over 25%) Nickel Alloy.  Welding is done using the same procedure that would be used with Argon Backing Gas.
When the green flag drops at the Indy 500 Solar Flux is in the Welding Garage--Just in case any Stainless Steel components, especially exhaust manifolds, need welding.
Solar Flux was developed prior to World War II by the Solar Aircraft Company, San Diego, California for use in the manufacturing of Stainless Steel exhaust manifolds for U.S. Navy aircraft engines and was a closely guarded military secret.  After the war, patents were obtained and Solar Flux was marketed internationally.
Solar Flux is inert, non-flammable, and non-explosive and can be shipped in any quantity by any means of transportation.
AWS/ANSI code:  See Structural Welding Code--Stainless Steel.  AWS D1.6:1999 Backing required for welder performance qualification (WPQ) and flux backing acceptable, Sections 3.29 and 4.8.7.
Type B conforms to Mil-F-7516B (class 2 & 4) for welding Stainless Steel by any Gas or Arc Method.
The shelf life is infinite as long as it hasn't been mixed with fluid and remains in a closed container.
A little Solar Flux goes a long way:  2 ounces 56.7g properly mixed and applied will cover approximately 80 lineal feet or 24.3 meters
This package contains enough Solar Flux to cover approximately
320 lineal ft. 97.5 meters
Common applications:  Pipe and Tube Welding, Maintenance Welding, In Field Welding, One of a kind welds, Unusual shapes and configurations, large diameter pipes and ducts, various aircraft and jet engine repairs, and many more.
