Default Re: Digger buckets

I've used the Durafix aluminum brazing product on my International PH350 truck frame and found it works just as in the video. My frame is much heavier than the soda can shown, so it does take longer to heat up. As long as the base material is just at the melting temp of the rod, it works great. I had to braze areas about 7" long, so had to keep the heat ahead of the brazing area, but worked fine. Caution: if brazing small or thin parts, it is easy to overheat and melt the base material - about 715F degrees for the rod, about 1050F degrees for the base. I liquified two small rollers before learning, but am a convert. Excellent product and very strong. Got mine at Tractor Supply.
