Soldering? For structural stuff, you need a "hard solder" which is either silver solder or brazing rod. Neither of these can be done with a soldering gun/iron. Harris Safety Silv & flux is the easiest bet since a normal gas torch (used for sweat fitting copper pipe) can deal with it. Brazing requires a bit more heat. As to tubing 3/16th" steel brake line is a common size (use the uncoated stuff). |
