The Importance of Choosing the Right Torch Tip Size for Brazing

Explanation:

The torch tip used for brazing should be slightly smaller than the tip recommended for braze welding. This is because brazing typically involves heating a smaller area of the metal, whereas braze welding requires a larger area of heat to melt the filler metal and the base metal to fuse them together. Therefore, a smaller torch tip for brazing can provide better control and precision in heating the metal, allowing for a stronger and cleaner joint.
