brazed

 

[ breษชzd ]

Verb
Context #1 | Verb

metal joining

Brazed refers to the process of joining two or more metals by melting and flowing a filler metal into the joint. This process occurs at a temperature above 450 ยฐC (about 840 ยฐF), which is below the melting point of the workpieces. It is different from welding in that the workpieces do not melt. Brazing produces a strong bond that can be used in various applications, including plumbing, HVAC, and metal art. This technique is particularly valuable for joining dissimilar metals and allows for the creation of complex assemblies.

Synonyms

fuse, join, meld

Examples of usage

  • The plumber brazed the copper pipes together.
  • We decided to braze the steel frame for added strength.
  • He carefully brazed the joints to ensure no leaks.
  • They braze aluminum components in their manufacturing process.

Etymology

The term 'brazing' is believed to have originated in the early 19th century, from the Old French 'braser', which meant to melt or heat. It is derived from the word 'braze', which is related to the word 'brass'. Historically, brazing techniques and methods have been utilized as far back as ancient civilizations, where craftsmen would join different metals for tools, weapons, and artifacts. Over the centuries, as metallurgy advanced, the techniques of brazing evolved, allowing for more sophisticated and efficient joins between metals. This process became increasingly important during the industrial revolution, facilitating the mass production of a wide variety of metal components, ultimately leading to the refinement of modern brazing techniques that we use today. As technology advanced, brazing has found applications in many industries, reinforcing its significance in metalworking and fabrication.
