OPERATIONS/PREPARATION.
Brazing rods contains copper and zinc and are used for
normal work.
Silver soldering rods contain silver, copper and zinc and are
used for special low temperature work.
Heating is done either by a furnace or blow pipe. (6200C –
10200C according to melting point of the rods).
• Heating is done either by a furnace or blow pipe.
(6200C – 10200C according to melting point of the
rods).
• Technique after the parts have been heated to a hard
soldering temperature flux and filler metal are applied
to the joint and the heat kept on until the filler metal
has flown into the joints. Care must be taken not to
overheat the work and filler metal.
Advantages of brazing
• Wetting:
Once the material has been heated to then
working temperature, molten metal begins to
wet the surface of the work piece.
The molten solder and the sold base material
came into close contact and form a layer of few
crystals in dimension
Wetting is the solvent reaction that occurs when
melted solder meets and blends with the metal
being soldered.
Rosin flux is the chemical substance added to
solder, which helps facilitate wetting.
