Which brazing rod do you use when brazing copper to brass?

You should use solder, not brazing. Brazing is used to join iron or steel products together.

Why must you preheat copper before brazing?

You usually do not braze copper, you solder it. If you were to use brazing rod on copper, the copper would have very close to the same melting point as the brazing rod. This makes it difficult to do. As far as preheating the copper, it needs to be hot enough for the brazing to flow.

What can be applied using brazing rods?

Flux can be applied using brazing rods. Bronze and Steel weldings can also be applied using brazing rods. You can also apply iron and other types of metal.

Why is a flux needed for brazing?

You must use flux while brazing because the flux prevents oxides from forming while the metal is heated. The flux also serves the purpose of cleaning any contamination left on the brazing surfaces.


A flux is applied during a brazing operation primarily to?

When Brazing copper to copper flux is normally not needed When brazing steel or copper based alloys then the flux is used to help the wetting action (Better flow of the brazing alloy) and to prevent oxidation A typical rod would be Union Carbide 25 M or check out the AWS booklet


When brazing the lowest effective brazing temperatures possible should be used to minimize the effects of heat on the base metal?

Yes, that is proper technique.

What is the difference between soldering and brazing?

Soldering and brazing both join two parts by melting a different metal as an adhesive without damaging the two parts being joined. Soldering uses a different metal that has a lower melting point (usually lead-based) than the metal used in brazing (usually silver). This allows easier joining in soldering, but a stronger bond in brazing.
