Do these usually include flux?

[Andrew Gabriel]

Never, AFAIK.

Don't even think on those lines, preparation is EVERYTHING.

Clean the pipe ends AND inside the fittings with wire wool till they shine, apply flux to pipe AND fitting, and cook quickly, but not too much, it only needs about 250 deg C, and keep it perfectly still till it's cooled.

Anything less will cause tears before bedtime
