The aluminum brazing rod melts at temperatures between 580-620°C (1076-1148°F). This range is specified for the filler metal used in aluminum brazing, which has a lower melting point than the base aluminum alloy to ensure that only the filler metal melts during the brazing process.
The filler metal used in aluminum brazing is designed to melt at a lower temperature than the base aluminum alloy. This is crucial because it allows the filler metal to flow into the joint between the components being brazed without causing the base metal to melt. The melting of the filler metal occurs at temperatures between 580-620°C (1076-1148°F), as noted in the reference. This temperature range is necessary to ensure that the filler metal can adequately flow and fill the gaps between the parts being joined.
Once the filler metal melts, it spreads out and fills the gaps, creating a strong bond as it cools and solidifies. This process is essential for ensuring the integrity and strength of the joint. The cooling process is also carefully managed to prevent any issues with the solidification of the filler metal, which could compromise the quality of the brazed joint.
In summary, the melting point of the aluminum brazing rod, which is the filler metal in this process, is specifically set to a lower temperature than the base aluminum alloy to facilitate effective brazing without damaging the base material. This critical temperature range ensures that the brazing process can be carried out effectively, leading to a strong and reliable joint.
