Why is brazing better than welding?

Welding would melt the base metal and filler metal while brazzing only melts the filler metal.

How brazing different from welding?

In welding, the parent metal, that is the pieces to be joined are actually melted along with the filler metal, if any. The filler metal is the same material as the parent metal. In brazing, the pieces to be joined are heated, but do not melt. Only the filler metal is melted. The filler is a brazing alloy, usually an alloy containing brass, silver, or other metals. The filler metal is not the same as the parent metal. Since brazing does not melt the parent metal, less heat is required, but the resulting joint is not as strong as a welded joint. The brazing alloy is usually a different color than the parent metal, so the joint will stand out and be visible, which can be an issue where appearance is important.

In a casting flux is it possible to replace fluorspar by any other material?

== Avoiding fluoride fluxes== Fluorspar is a mineral and an old term for calcium fluoride. Calcium fluoride is not quite so poisonous as most other fluorides because it is relatively insoluble, however it is better if you can avoid fluorides. The use of fluoride fluxes is not recommended by health authorities such as OSHA (in the US) and many companies sell zinc chloride soldering fluxes instead of older fluoride fluxes. The answer to the question is, as usual, 'it depends.' In the case of casting metals, it depends on the metal being used, the type of casting, and the final use of the casting. For casting silver and gold, various mixes of sodium tetraborate and boric acid may be used; many commercially available fluxes are just such mixtures. Other metals may require different fluxes. Some additional help may be available from a local jeweler, foundry, or a web search. (more on this later?)


What is a base metal in welding?

A base metal is also called the Parent metal. It is that metal in the welding practice that has been cut by the various forms of cutting, then prepared and is to be welded. Welding is performed to join one section of the base metal to another section of base metal by means of the various welding processes, e.g. SMAW(Shielded Metal Arc Welding) where welding welding rods are used, GTAW(Gas Tungsten Arc Welding) where Tig wire is used, FCAW(Flux Cored Arc Welding) etc. The welding rods, the TIG wires etc are called the filler metals, for they fill the weld gaps by depositing their molten-state weld metals.
