Abstract
Investigations on brazing of titanium alloy samples by using different compositions of aluminium filler alloys were carried out. Silicon-free aluminium filler alloys were found to be acceptable for producing the brazed joints on titanium alloys. The 670-690 °C brazing temperature range is optimal for the selected filler alloys.
