Brazing Overview

What is Brazing?

Brazing is the joining of two base materials with a filler metal. As defined by the American Welding Society (AWS), brazing temperatures must be below the melting point of the two base metals, and the filler metal must have a liquidus above 840°F (450°C) to flow smoothly into joints. Mostly performed in a vacuum or controlled atmosphere furnace, brazing is also done by using torch or induction heating.

Brazing Filler Metals

Nicrobraz® Brazing Filler Metals are the original and best-known nickel-base, cobalt-base, and iron-base brazing filler metals. Nicrobraz brazing filler metals produce strong stainless and super-alloy brazements with heat- and corrosion-resistant joints.
