for stainless steel, I recommend using a brazing rod with a composition that matches your stainless steel type. Look for rods that contain nickel, as they give good corrosion resistance.

i've had good success with silicon-bronze brazing rods. They flow nicely and generate solid joints without a lot of fuss.

i've also heard that employing a flux can make a significant difference in the brazing method. It helps in preventing oxidation and promotes better bonding.

definitely! Just make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for the best outcomes. The right rod and technique can make a big difference in the grade of your joint.
