Induction Processed Separable Tubular Brazed Connectors

Abstract

Methods for producing separable tube joints, other than mechanical, were investigated for application of these joints to the M-1 engine lines. The induction process was selected for brazing the separable tube connectors. Special plier-type induction brazing tools were made to permit the brazing of M-1 thrust chamber transition tube joints to the fuel torus. An 82% gold-18% nickel brazing alloy was used with a brazing temperature range of 1900 deg F to 1950 deg F. The tubes and sleeves in this application were of 0.032-in wall AISI, Type 347 stainless steel.
