Very nice video! "ExtendedGravy" - the tube has to be heated also, so that the capilary attraction can occur for both the surfaces to be joined! I think the comment below are not based on facts - just on one`s expirience... I think I`ll take the Harold Moret`s advise :)
You guys get too fucking technical with your explanations. I'm a union plumber who's been working in the trade for 7 years straight now with no lay offs because I'm the shit.
Part of the reason why the alloy is pasted on is because he didn't heat up the elbow's union enough to suck in the brazing alloy using "capillary action".
This video DOES NOT describes how to properly braze copper tube.
Firstly, there is no point in heating the tube before the elbow.
Secondly, copper is an excellent conductor of heat. You do not need to move your torch that much. In fact, you can usually keep the flame stationary on the pipe. Your goal is to get that swedged union in the elbow RED HOT, but only briefly. The moment your flame turns GREEN, you are ready to apply your brazing alloy. You don't need to paste it on like in this video.
@KrazyJak90 you use tig are you a retard ? i hope you arnt useing tig for ac pipe (r410) has a running psi of 100 psi to 550 psi it will blow with tig

I doubt this would pass a pressure test.

Hmm...I've been doing plumbing for over 15 years, this looks a bit different from my process (which is 95% effective) .
