THE DUCTILITY OF BRAZED STAINLESS STEEL JOINTS

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4221453
The ductility of Type 310 stainless steel T-joints brazed with GE-62 brazing alloy was measured. The measure of ductility was taken as the plastic axial strain required to crack braze fillets in T-section tensile specimens. At elevated temperatures, the ductility of as-brazed joints approximated that of the stainless steel, but at room temperature the brazed joints had only 0.1 the ductility of the base metal. Annealing for 16 hr at 1800 deg F in air was found to triple the room-temperature ductility of the brazed joint. (auth)
