Abstract
The requirement for improved heat resistance in lightweight structures lends itself naturally to brazing. Metallurgical joining of the unique material, beryllium, enables structural engineers and designers to avail themselves of efficient material utilization. This chapter section will discuss low-temperature brazing (soldering), medium-temperature brazing using aluminum-base fillers, and high-temperature brazing using silver-base fillers.
