Which Is Better Solder or Braze? | Pressure Test

I've been wanting to test this out for awhile, and I know you guys have too! I put two fundamental plumbing techniques to the ultimate test. Watch as I meticulously create a braze joint and a solder joint, then subject them to a rigorous pressure test to see at what point they give way. This isn't just about strength; it’s about understanding the resilience and reliability of these joints under extreme conditions. Ideal for plumbers, apprentices, and DIY enthusiasts, this video offers a practical demonstration of how much pressure these joints can withstand when done correctly. Whether you’re in the trade or simply curious about plumbing mechanics, this test provides valuable insights into the durability and application of soldering and brazing in plumbing. Get ready to see these techniques pushed to their limits!
