CuSil is a tradename for an alloy of 72% silver and 28% copper (± 1%) marketed by Morgan Advanced Materials. It is a eutectic alloy primarily used for vacuum brazing.{{cite journal|last1=Nafi|first1=A.|last2=Cheikh|first2=M.|last3=Mercier|first3=O.|title=Identification of mechanical properties of CuSil-steel brazed structures joints: a numerical approach|journal=Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology|date=21 June 2013|volume=27|issue=24|pages=2705–2713|doi=10.1080/01694243.2013.805640|s2cid=137246500|url=https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-01687309/file/identification-of-mechanical-properties.pdf}} CuSil should not be confused with the similarly named Cusil-ABA, which has a different composition (Ag – 63.0%, Cu – 35.25%, Ti – 1.75%)
