Skipping any of the basic brazing steps can lead to pipe joint failure. Strong brazed joints in high-pressure pipes are critical to lasting, leak-free performance. However, brazing is not always given ...

Brazing joins parts by heating them to more than 840°F and applying a filler metal that has a melting temperature below that of the base metal. Filler metal flows into the joint by capillary ...

I’m not so sure my gripe is a problem so much as it is a source of confusion, particularly for brazing novices: Many of the ...

The welding of dissimilar metal joints in new and retrofit power plant boiler tubing has long proved challenging. New plants designed to operate at higher temperatures and pressures require advanced ...

Chromium-molybdenum (chrome-moly) pipe has become a standard in the power generation industry, not only because of its corrosion resistance and high-temperature strength, but also for its ...

Filler metals for 36Ni alloy cryogenic pipeline construction need further refining to obtain overmatching mechanical properties relative to the base metal. This article provides an overview of ...
