KSC-SPEC-Z-0006A, INDUCTION BRAZING, AEROSPACE TUBING FITTINGS SPECIFICATION FOR (15 MAR 1995)

KSC-SPEC-Z-0006A, INDUCTION BRAZING, AEROSPACE TUBING FITTINGS SPECIFICATION FOR (15 MAR 1995)., This specification covers induction brazing, inspecting of brazed joints, qualification of brazing machine operators, and certification of brazing schedules for aerospace tubing fittings used in the fabrication of critical ground support systems. This specification is for use in critical applications only. A brazed joint is critical where a failure of any portion would cause loss of system, loss of a major component, loss of control, unintentional release of critical stores, or hazard to personnel. Induction brazing is less preferable for use than other qualified processes such as automatic tube and pipe welding where applicable because of economic considerations. Therefore, automatic tube and pipe welding is to be used in preference to brazing whenever applicable.
