The difference between TIG brazing and TIG welding is brazing occurs above 840f but below the melting point of the base metal being joined.
Silicon bronze filler metal melts around 1800-1900f and carbon steel melts around 2800f.
Silicon bronze is a useful rod to have in your tig arsenal because its a good rod for joining dissimilar metals.
cast iron, steel, copper, bronze, and brass can all be joint to each other using silicon bronze rod also know as Everdur.
Sometimes mechanics need specialty wrenches that are not available from Snap-on, MAC, Craftsmen, etc.
In the Aircraft maintenance industry, this is a common thing.
This modification even had a engineering drawing with it.
I used Hastelloy W filler rod because I have had success with it many many ...
In this video, you will see the importance of cleaning mill scale along with several other tips for tig welding steel
Modifying Wrenches is common practice in certain industries like aviation maintenance. There are tight areas where a conventional wrench wont fit.
Hastelloy W is usually a great choice when you know its steel but cannot determine the exact metal type.
