在1953年6月30日至1954年12月31日期间，Handy和Harman研究实验室制备了约117种实验性钎焊合金，并评估了将导热金属翅片连接到Inconel管的可能候选材料，以在1400至1600°F的温度下使用，其中接头的抗氧化性是强制性的。 开发了金-镍-铬合金和钯-镍基铬和硅合金，可用于在1900至1950°F的钎焊温度范围内将不锈钢连接到Inconel上。 合金可以使用焊剂进行焊炬钎焊，也可以在保护气氛中不使用焊剂。由此产生的接头在1600°F的工作温度下抗氧化。 随着进一步发展，仍有可能生产出添加硅磷硼的钯镍基合金，该合金将在1850至1900°F的温度范围内进行钎焊。 该报告还包含了关于石墨钎焊的说明。

During the period from June 30, 1953 to Dec. 31, 1954 some 117 experimental brazing alloys were prepared at the Handy and Harman research laboratories, and evaluated as possible candidates for joining heat-conducting metal fins to Inconel tubing for service at temperatures in the order of 1400 to 1600°F where oxidation resistance of the joint was mandatory. Alloys of gold-nickel-chromium and palladium-nickel base alloys with chromium and silicon were developed which can be used to join stainless steel to Inconel at brazing temperatures in the range of 1900 to 1950°F. The alloys can be torch brazed using flux, or used without flux in a protective atmosphere. The resulting joints resist oxidation at 1600°F service temperature. It is still possible that with further development palladium-nickel base alloys with silicon-phosphorus-boron additions can be produced which will braze in the temperature range from 1850 to 1900°F. The report also contains a note on graphite brazing.
