About P. Kay Canada

The Classique line of stained glass soldering products has been used by professionals and hobbyists for over twenty-five years. Stained glass artisans have come to rely on the consistent performance of Classique came, solder, flux and patina. Classique takes the worry out of soldering enabling the artist to focus on his craft.

In 2001, Classique products became part of P. Kay Metal, Inc. Headquartered in Los Angeles, California, with manufacturing facilities in Montreal, Quebec, Canada and Tijuana, Mexico, P. Kay Metal, Inc. has been manufacturing soldering products for generations. P. Kay services the electronic, electrical, industrial and, now, the stained glass market.

Classique brings new dimension to P. Kay Metal and P. Kay Metal provides decades of soldering technology to Classique. These two great names combine to provide reliable soldering products and consistent soldering performance… one connection at a time.

 

Classique Lead Came

Classique lead came is manufactured using our unique extrusion process "Extrusol". This process provides an extruded strip free from air and oxide inclusions. Our popular "N" alloy has the addition of other metal such as tin, antimony and copper. These controlled additions improve characteristics such as corrosion resistance, ductibility and solderability not always available in other came products.

Our alloys are made and controlled in-house and provide lead cames which are of superior quality and consistent from lot to lot. The Serrated inner channel assists in cementing.

For the last ten years, our lead came has been well packed in a heavy cardboard disposable box with cardboard separators between lead came layers preventing damage during handling and transportation.
