Hi All,
My background is electronics but in latter years have been messing about with a mig welder.
Recently I have been trying to join more delicate components that simply won’t tolerate that level of heat and have therefore invested in a modest brazing torch and some cans of MAPP gas. It’s often a fiddly task trying to hold/clamp small parts whilst fluxing and heating and generally trying to keep one’s eyebrows in tact, my question is this, has anyone here used or experimented with bronze paste (if indeed there is such a thing)? My experience of flow soldering makes me wonder if there is an equivalent for brazing – is it possible to add some material (similar to a flow solder paste) in between parts and let the heat work it’s magic, the bronze paste flowing at the prescribed temperature.
I am aware that you can buy bronze powder (ground to a fine mesh size 240-350 Microns), but cannot find it mixed in a compound – could it be mixed with some brazing flux and wiped in between parts?
Any thoughts would be appreciated,
Thanks very much
