Abstract
A method is for direct application of a brazing flux material to a brazing surface. The method includes the step of applying a brazing filler material to a substrate utilizing a kinetic spray process to form a brazing surface. Following application of the brazing filler material to the substrate brazing flux material can be directly applied to the brazing surface as either a dry powder or a wet slurry. The nature of the brazing surface allows the applied flux material to adhere to the surface without the utilization of additional binders or resin materials.
