Cost per pound is only one part of brazing economics When companies compare brazing materials, price per pound is easy to measure. Total process cost is more complicated. The finished joint is affected by alloy chemistry, filler metal volume, flow behavior, form, joint fit, heating cycle, operator ...

The filler-metal form is part of the process design Engineers often spend significant time choosing alloy chemistry and then treat filler-metal form as a secondary detail. In production brazing, that can be a mistake. The same alloy can behave very differently in a process depending on how it is ...
