looks like copper phosphrous rods they're good for copper to copper without any flux as the phosphrous acts as a flux, but sifbronze rods can join cast iron,steel brass & copper with flux nice join all the same.

If working on AC, I imagine flux coated rods were used?

copper to copper phosphorus rods are the most widely used or something like a silweld 2 which has a bit of silver in it.
