Abstract

Two metal objects are bonded together by positioning a brazing composite on the surfaces that are to be bonded together and heating the metal objects causing the composite to disintegrate with brazing alloy that is held in the composite melting to bond the two surfaces together. The composite is a combination of the brazing alloy and fibrillater polytetrafluoroethylene. This product which is very malleable can be formed to any desired shape to facilitate bonding a variety of different objects together. It is particularly useful for bonding honeycombed objects to metal surfaces.
