OATEY 30106 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is Oatey No. 11 liquid flux water soluble, and does that mean I can flush the residue?
The No. 11 flux is water soluble, so the residue rinses off with water rather than needing a solvent wipe. On a potable line that matters: flush the run after soldering so you aren't leaving acidic residue sitting inside the copper.
2) Do I have to clean oxidized copper before using Oatey No. 11 flux?
No. The No. 11 liquid flux works without pre-cleaning oxidized copper, which is the point of it on repair work where the pipe has been in the wall for years. You still want the joint free of dirt, oil and water, but you are not obligated to bring the tube back to bright metal first.
3) How much flux is in the Oatey 30106 and how many joints does that cover?
The 30106 is a 4 oz container of No. 11 liquid flux, weighing 0.411 lb. A 4 oz bottle is a service-truck size, fine for a fixture change or a short repipe. If you're soldering a full rough-in, buy the larger container rather than running a truck back mid-job.
4) What is the difference between a liquid flux like Oatey No. 11 and a paste flux?
Liquid flux brushes and flows into the joint clearance on its own and drains rather than sitting in a bead, so it suits fittings you can wet quickly and horizontal work. Paste flux stays where you put it, which contractors prefer on vertical joints or overhead where a liquid can run. The No. 11 is the liquid, and it's water soluble, so cleanup is a rinse.
5) What color is Oatey No. 11 flux, and is that how I tell it apart from other Oatey fluxes?
No. 11 liquid flux is yellow. Oatey runs several fluxes that look similar on a shelf, so if you keep more than one on the truck, read the 30106 number on the label rather than going by the bottle.
