What is the term that means to bond filler material to a base metal? It is the key to success in brazing.

Brazing
Soldering
Tinning
Welding

The correct answer is: Tinning

The term that means to bond filler material to a base metal in brazing is tinning. Tinning is a crucial step in the brazing process as it allows the filler material to adhere to the base metal, creating a strong bond. Brazing, soldering, and welding are similar processes involving joining materials together, but they differ in the way they are carried out. Brazing uses a filler material that melts above 840°F to join metal components, soldering uses a lower melting point filler material, and welding melts the base metals themselves to join them.
