And in my opinion it is way harder to braze something then it is weld. Especially to braze something and keep it air tight, and hold pressure is a whole different ball game(06-06-2014, 02:18 PM)sassparilla_kid Be a man, use a torch!! Lol
This is actually not far from the truth. If you have two aluminum parts that are a slip fit (or better yet a press fit) with near 0 gap you can easily braze them. They're called Alladin brazing rods or white metal brazing rods.
Not as strong as welding, but that's partially why you want to have a slip fit for strength, and then use the brazing rod like a sealing goop
