It is often used in fabricating structures out of aluminum. Antennas and machinery enclosures are examples I am personally familiar with. Aluminum is tough to braze any other way, because you have little latitude with temperature. The brazing alloys that work with aluminum start to flow at temperatures that are very close to destructive for aluminum, especially in the presence of atmospheric O2. Temperature in dip brazing can be very tightly controlled.

Filler what can you use for brazing holes in sheet metal?
If the hole is very small the material you are brazing with should fill it. A small piece sheet metal can be brazed in place to cover larger holes.

Definition of soldering and brazing?
Brazing is actually not a method of welding as it does not melt the joint metal together. Brazing is actually much closer to soldering. It is a process that (usually) uses a gas torch and a thin brass rod to bind two (or more) pieces of metal together. The torch heats the joints surface to the melting temperature of brass at which time the brass filler rod is melted into the joint to fuse them together.
What is hobby brazing?
Brazing for hobbies
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.
What is a brazing hearth used for?
brazing clints head
What are the main applications of blowtorches?
The application for blow torches is usually metalworking and is used by means of soldering and brazing. A blow torche is a tool used for applying heat and flames to metal.
What is another name for brazing?
Brazing is also known as soldering or soft soldering in the layman vernacular.
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.
How do you do zinc welding?
Brazing
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.
What is the brazing process in 6 steps?
1. Joint Design2. Choice of Brazing Filler Metal Alloy3. Pre-cleaning4. Fluxing the Joint5. Heating the Joint and Applying the Filler Metal6. Removing the Flux Residues After Brazing
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.
