How it works

Step 1

Assemble parts and apply braze alloy where necessary.

Step 2

Place assembled parts into Vacuum furnace to be simultaneously cleaned, heated, and brazed.

Step 3

Remove parts from furnace and inspect for quality.
There is no job too big or too tough for this extremely clean process that outputs, superior, flux-free braze joints of high integrity and strength. We proudly boast a collection of 11 vacuum brazing furnaces of various size and strength, making us the best service provider in Southern California.

Benefits of Vacuum Brazing

  • No oxidation eliminating the necessity for flux
  • No post-braze washing; guaranteed absolutely clean, inclusion-free joints
  • Minimized residual stress and distortion
  • No heat-affected zones that could potentially cause trouble
  • Allows performing certain heat-treating operations in the same cycle to save time and money
