    Abstract: A brazing ring with integrated fluxing product and methods for production thereof is described. The brazing ring has a c-shaped body with a plurality of channels extending the thickness of the ring and disposed about the circumference thereof. The channels are separated by radially extending flanges with enlarged distal ends that extend into the channels. The enlarged ends at least partially enclose the channels to aid in retention of a fluxing product disposed in therein. The c-shape may enable flexure of the ring for installation on a pipe or fitting and a friction fit to maintain an installed position. The brazing ring is formed by extruding a filler material to form a tube with the desired profile and compressing the fluxing product into the channels of the profile. The tube is subsequently sectioned perpendicularly to its length to produce a plurality of the brazing rings.
