What's the difference between brazing and soldering?
In the jewelry industry, there are two techniques for joining metals by heat: soldering and brazing. These are commonly referred to as soldering, but there is a difference between the two.
Welding consists in joining two metal parts without adding any filler metal (brazing). The two parts fuse together. Brazing, on the other hand, requires the use of a filler metal.
In the case of silver brazing, this is a silver-based alloy that melts at a lower temperature than the original metal.
Brazing alloys come in various forms: plate, wire or paste.
The latter has the advantage of containing a flux and facilitating installation of the elements to be brazed.
Here, we offer you plate brazing alloys, which you can cut with shears to create small straw-like shapes.
There are three types of solder: hard, medium and easy.
The hard type is the one that will melt at the highest temperature. The composition of the solder determines the melting point.
These types of brazing are used when there are several elements to be brazed on the same piece of jewelry. The first brazes are strong, followed by medium and then weak.
