Abstract: Brazing alloys containing specified amounts of a reactive metal, specified amounts of boron, specified amount of gold, palladium and mixtures thereof and specified amounts of nickel, are ductile, have relatively low melting points. Chromium and silicon are optional metals which can also be utilized in this invention.

Abstract: An improved brazing alloy, particularly suited for use in high temperature gas turbine engines, has a composition range which exhibits X-ray inspection capability, improved stress rupture properties, good ductiity and oxidation resistance up to 1400.degree. F. The brazing alloy consists essentially of, by weight, about 20-80% Pd, 2-13% Cr, 1-4% B, balance being Ni and incidental impurities. The brazing alloy is capable of brazing in the 1800.degree.-2000.degree. F. temperature range and is less costly than Au-bearing brazing alloys currently in use for brazing in this temperature range.
