Brazing joins two pieces of base metal when melted metallic filler flows across the joint and cools to form a solid bond. The two base metals like silver and bronze are perfect for brazing. The process of both Brazing and soldering is same, but the only difference is that metals and temperatures differ. Brazing handles more unusual configurations with linear joints.

Before starting braze work it is important that you clean the entire area properly and then apply melted flux. Flux can remove oxides, prevent oxidation during brazing and smoothes the surface so that braze “flows” evenly across the joint. Then you gather the torch and braze alloy. Finally, you complete the joint by applying braze. One major advantage of Brazing is a brazed joint is smooth and complete, creating an airtight and watertight bond for piping that can be easily plated so the seam disappears.
