Oxy-Acetylene; Welding, Brazing, Cutting and Heating

Lesson: Oxy-Acetylene Brazing

Standard B7.5 - Know basic repair skills using a variety of techniques, such as braing or hard surfacing



Brazing• Is classified by the

American Welding

Society (AWS) as a

liquid – solid pase

!onding process"

#" Liquid- Filler metal ismelted (Brass Rod).

$" %olid- Base metals are

not melted (heated only).

&" 'ase- The temperatureat hich bonding ta!es

place beteen the solid

base metal and li"uidfiller metal

(" Bonding- To secure orhold together.



Brazing• A form of elding characteri#ed by the use

of base metal temperatures abo$e %&&degrees but belo the melting point of the

base metal.• Bra#ing Temperature' ccurs around )(*+

degrees

• ost metals can be *oined by bra#ing butthe proper filler rod and flu+ must be used.

• Flu+ is re"uired to prepare the metals for *oining and the filler rod bonds the base

metals together.• ,A-TI/ All bra#ing processes should be

preformed in a ell'$entilated area. To+icfumes may be generated by the bra#ing

process.
