what is the different between brazing and soldering..

Answer / nagesh

Brazing is a process for joining similar or dissimilar metals using a filler metal that typically includes a base of copper combined with silver, nickel, zinc or phosphorus. Brazing covers a temperature range of 900ºF - 2200ºF (470ºC - 1190ºC). Brazing differs from welding in that brazing does not melt the base metals, therefore brazing temperatures are lower than the melting points of the base metals. For the same reason, brazing is a superior choice in joining dissimilar metals. Brazed joints are strong. A properly-made joint (like a welded joint) will in many cases be as strong or stronger than the based metals being joined.

soldering is a process in which a filler metal is melted at temperatures below 840° (450° C) to form a joint between two base metals. Soldering is often used for delicate projects such as jewelry and electronics.
