Contact SupplierBrazing is a metal-joining process whereby a filler metal is heated above melting point and distributed between two or more close-fitting parts by capillary action. The filler metal is brought slightly above its melting temperature while protected by a suitable atmosphere, usually a flux. It then flows over the base metal (known as wetting) and is then cooled to join the work pieces together. It is similar to soldering, except the temperatures used to melt the filler metal are higher.Brazing is the leading method of metal joining in many HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning) appliances and equipment. It is also commonly used in joining or repairing copper pipes. As a general rule, brazing is used when solid, leak proof joints must be made without melting the base metals
