A brazing torch is used to head up metals to a high temperature. This is helpful for welding, molding and construction which uses metals. It can be hand held for a torch.

How do you braze metal?
You use an acetylene torch and special brazing rods.
What is a brazing hearth used for?

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.
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.
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

What are 3.0 green safety glasses and also where and why must they be worn?
the number 3.0 describes the level of shade protection in the glasses. Green safety glasses are worn when you are used to protect your eyes when you are working with metal. Specifically, 3.0 glasses should be use when you are torch brazing, torch soldering, or cutting metal.
What type of tip do you use to braze?
Brazing can be done with a small torch or a big soldering iron. Either electric or brazier heated. The tip on a torch should be small as you don't need the heat you use when gas welding or cutting.

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 hobby brazing?
Brazing for hobbies
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.
