    Silver brazing copper is a good way to go----the pipe must be round----use an expander and a ring collar to expand into. Do not use induction heating---torch only. Use BCuP-5 alloy-----------only use an experienced silver brazer. If no experienced brazer available--mechanize the system. Abrade...

    Turbine Housing TIG welding filler material ?

    When joining 1018 to Cast Iron--assumming a weldable grade, use RN-61 filler--but pre-clean cast iron by heating to dull red and wire brushing-----then preheat cast iron up to between 700 -1000 F and butter the cast iron in the area of attachment to the 1018 with at least 3/16" thickness of...
