who would have thought high silver brazing rod is faked online

<< < (3/3)

coppercone2:
maybe this? Harris, 56318LMPOP (search on amazon). But I think I paid more. Maybe it was ebay.


looks about right, 50% of the other places price.

When I bought some deburring tool a while back, ebay Noga, it came with a tool type that does not exist in the noga catalog! must be from the future. wrong part # was sent and the part # that was sent had tools that do not exist in the catalog, let alone the contents of the part #.

coppercone2:
And I found evidence of tampering on the brazing rod tube. Under the label, there is a scrap of material (looks to be a strip of label material), that is stuck under the label at a 45 degree angle. So basically it looks like scraps/cuttings got stuck to the label that was attached to the tube.... very unprofessional. But its hidden under the cap so you never look there.

Its like if you were doing something with scissors, then placed a label that you took off something else on a surface that had scraps of label material on it, then put it on the tube. brilliant.

but it looks like I am out of oxygen now so the fun is over  :'(

Yeah those are not cheap, 56% silver, current price for silver is $75/100g.

99% of Noga stuff on ebay or aliexpress are clones. They are cheap, but so far the HSS blades I got are OK.

ehh the big ones are OK (the ID/OD tube ones) which is what I really wanted, but the small thin ones are crap compared to real noga ones. I guess they can get the big parts OK. The smaller ones are unusually fragile and chip alot, and cutting force is much higher. When I got a pack of the real noga ones it was pretty amazing. But the counterfiet noga are better then the non noga deburring tools that are alot cheaper, which are just flaming garbage, you can debur a piece of aluminum you basically melted with a torch prior

But its only 3 small tools, sure I only wanted it for brass tube, and I am sure it is gonna bite me in the ass soon enough. Haha I should try it on some titanium tube and see how it does

Thankfully never ran into this issue. Dad bought a 4kg roll in 1986. I've inherited it a decade ago, still more than 80% left.
