Soldering and brazing both join two parts by melting a different metal as an adhesive without damaging the two parts being joined. Soldering uses a different metal that has a lower melting point (usually lead-based) than the metal used in brazing (usually silver). This allows easier joining in soldering, but a stronger bond in brazing.
"Nothing really. It concerns the metal your working with. You braze with brass, solder with lead and weld with steel. That's about it.In general, brazing refers to higher temperature processes than soldering does, but the line is pretty fuzzy."I don't think its as simple as that, I thought the processes were distinguished by their temperature ranges for a while too until I was told otherwise. There are high temperature solders and low temperature brazing materials. ARC wielding is the actual metallurgical bonding of similar materials together, as opposed to soldering which I feel is more of a semi-physical bond. Long story short I don't know the exact difference from a mettalurgical standpoint but they are infact much different in that respect.There is no fundamental difference between brazing and soldering; it is primarily historic. The word "braze" is derived from an old English word "braes" meaning to cover with brass. While "solder" is derived from an old french word "soudure" which means to make solid. Based on the historic developments, brazing process is defined as one where the filler melts above 450 C while soldering is where the filler melts below 450 C. But beyond that technically there is no difference.
Copper is ductile, malleable, and a good conductor of heat. It also has good brazing and soldering properties.

Soldering iron is like more thinner then iron iron is a bit thicker.A good soldering iron is like a fine pen - light and a delight to hold, it delivers heat quickly and exactly where needed and it maintains it as long as needed for bigger jobs.
It is generally called a flux or cleansing agent. Sometimes contained in electrode coatings and found in powdered form to use in the Oxy-fuel welding process. Primary ingredient is Borax ( yah same as in some hand cleaners). Often mixed with water to form a paste that can be applied by a brush to both the welding/brazing rod and also the base metal.
same concept, silver soldering requires higher temperatures usually
Brazing is also known as soldering or soft soldering in the layman vernacular.
The type of material used to connect the pieces. Solder is used on copper or brass. Brazing uses a copper alloy and is used on Iron based items. Same process in how it is done.

really no difference except for the quantity of soldering.
Gas welding/soldering/brazing
By soldering or brazing
Brazing isn't welding - it's more like soldering. You use a rod made out of brass for the process of brazing.
It is closer too soldering, just more heat, tin/sliver instead of solder and brazing flux instead solder flux. More like welding as far as strength is concerned. It is very strong and is used on larger diameter pipes. however application is the same as soldering
Because they are all methods of joining metals together.
You may mean soldering, brazing or welding. These are all methods of joining metals
