Definition
A group of process that use heat to melt a metallic bonding agent, but not the base metal. The adhesion quality of the bonding agent binds the parts together when cooled.

Heat
Can you think of one critical condition that is required for adhesion to be successful?
Soldering:
Solder can be solid or flux core. Flux core can be acid or rosin. Can be tin, silver or zinc alloy.
What are the three common forms that are used for fluxes?
10
Controlling Heat
Metals are excellent conductors of heat
Heat applied to joint moves away from the joint. The greater the mass of metal that must be heated--the greater the heat requirement.
Manipulation of the heat source may necessary to heat both pieces evenly.

Soldering
12
Definition
A nonfusion process that uses a metal alloy that melts below 840 oF.

Soldering
Relies upon capillary action. What is capillary action?
Describe soft soldering? How is hard soldering different from soft soldering?
14
Soldering Process
1. The joint area is cleaned and fluxed. 2. A heat source is used to raise the temperature of the base metal above the melting of the filler metal (<840 oF). 3. The filler metal is added to the joint.
Filler material should melt from the heat of the metal, not the heat source.
4. The filler metal flows into the joint and adheres to the surfaces. 5. The heat source is removed and the filler metal solidifies, bonding the surfaces together.
15
Tinning
Tinning is the process of applying a thin layer of filler rod to the surface of the metal.
16
Brazing
A process that uses a metal alloy that melts above 840 oF, but less than the melting point of the base metal. Brazing relies on capillary action to draw the filler metal into the joint or to keep it in the joint.
17
Brazing Process
1. The joint area is mechanically cleaned and fluxed
Flux can be applied before the joint is assembled, or during the brazing process.
3. A heat source is used to raise the temperature of the base metal above the melting of the filler metal (>840 oF).
Must insure the joint is not overheated. If this occurs the flux will burn and contaminate the joint. When the joint becomes contaminated it must be recleaned and refluxed before the welding can continue.
4. The filler metal is added to the joint. 5. The filler metal flows into the joint and adheres to the surfaces. 6. The heat source is removed and the filler metal solidifies, bonding the surfaces together.

Brazing Joints
The tensile strength of brazing filler material is less than steel. The strength of the weld is increased if the joints are modified to increase the surface area.
Tensile strength of brazing rod is ~40,000 psi. Tensile strength of steel electrode is 36,000 to 50,000 psi.

Braze welding
A process that uses a metal alloy that melts above 840 oF, but less than the melding point of the base metal. Braze welding is the same process as brazing except it does not use capillary action and a visible bead is formed.
Process:
1. 2. The joint area is cleaned and fluxed. A heat source is used to raise the temperature of the base metal to the melting temperature of the filler metal. If excessive heat is added to the joint, the flux will burn. When this occurs the process must start over. The filler metal is added to the joint. The filler metal adheres to both surfaces forming a bead. The puddle must be heated until the key hole collapses. The heat source is removed and the filler metal solidifies, bonding the surfaces together.
