It is determined that brazing of copper on steel under conditions of autonomous vacuum in contact zone promotes formation of an area of increased microhardness, which is eliminated by standard for steel heat treatment. It is shown that content of carbon in steel does not promote significant effect on properties of copper-steel transition zone. It is stated that interaction of liquid copper with steel does not result in formation of cracks in the joint zone under conditions of brazing in autonomous vacuum. It is determined that increase of time of contact of liquid copper with steel results in formation  brittle structures that decrease joint impact toughness. Fracture of steel-copper joint takes place along copper in static tensile tests. At that strength properties of brazed layer exceed reference data for deformed and annealed copper. 7 Ref., 2 Tabl., 9 Fig.
 
Keywords: brazing of copper on steel in autonomous vacuum, steel-copper bimetal, structure and properties of transition zone.
