Brazing
A method of bonding metallic surfaces with a more fusible metal or alloy. Unlike welding, in which the metals being joined are themselves most often melted together, brazing makes use of a bonding or filler metal of different composition and lower melting point than the metal being joined. This is the same as soldering, but as soldering is a term applied to many related processes it is normal to distinguish brazing from soldering. A common form of brazing brass or spelter consists of 50% zinc, 44% copper, 4% tin and 2% lead, although sometimes it might contain nickel, manganese or silicon.
