Reply:Brass on brass would be welding. Never had any luck with it. But I have had some luck silver brazing brass, with 56% cad free wire, and Tig using silicon bronze. Even had better luck tigging with sil-phos 15% silver.Weld like a "WELDOR", not a wel-"DERR" MillerDynasty700DX,Dynasty350DX4ea,Dynasty200DX,Li  ncolnSW200-2ea.,MillerMatic350P,MillerMatic200w/spoolgun,MKCobraMig260,Lincoln SP-170T,PlasmaCam/Hypertherm1250,HFProTig2ea,MigMax1ea.
Reply:I was going to say silver solder. Never thought about the sil-phos. I'll have to try that some day. Now if he's going to be joining steel or cast iron then he wants silicon bronze for tig and low fuming brazing rod for gas. They don't interchange well.Millermatic 252XMT 304'sDynasty 280DXHypertherm PowerMax 1250Miller Trailblazer 302 EFIOptima PulserXR feeder and XR Edge gun and more athttp://members.dslextreme.com/users/waynecook/index.htm
