Brazing, simply put, is joining metal to metal by filling the joint with a different, melted metal at temperatures over 840F. The melted metal filling the gap must be able to wet the pieces being joined so that it is drawn into the gap by capillary action. Below 840F, the equivalent process is called soldering. If the process is hot enough to melt the metals being joined, it becomes welding or braze-welding. The pieces being joined together are referred to as the base metal, while the melted metal that fills the gap between them is called the filler metal. The following discussion of brazing focuses on the techniques and materials used in brazing bicycle frames, but most of the information applies to any similar brazing of light-weight steel components. Safety All types of brazing generate toxic fumes, and most brazing torches burn unstable fuels.

How to Weld. Welding Equipment and Supply. JoeWelder.com™ One comment we hear often about TIG Torch packages “What do you mean a torch package only includes a torch body and a cable?” Those of us in the industry are used to this, but fabricators new to the industry can easily end up ordering a TIG torch that they can’t use—at least until they buy the front end accessories. A premium TIG torch package includes rubber cables and hoses, and a standard package includes vinyl, plastic cables and hoses. What you don’t get is the front end parts you’ll need to actually use you torch: gas nozzles, collets and collet bodies, a back cap, and tungsten electrodes.

If you already have the TIG torch accessories you need, a standard or premium torch package is the way to go, but if you’re just starting out, or have a welding project that requires a different front-end setup for your torch, you’ll need to get the proper parts. Keep in mind, what makes a quality TIG weld is how you accessorize the front end of your TIG torch.
