I-CAR · February 3, 2021 · Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, RAM, Stellantis

Summary

This article outlines FCA/Stellantis requirements and recommendations for MIG brazing, noting that it is used to minimize the heat-affected zone on very high-strength steels. It emphasizes that MIG brazing does not guarantee mechanical properties comparable to other welding systems, must not be used on structural components unless specified, and requires a Pulse Arc or STT welding machine.

What to do on the job

Only perform MIG brazing at the specific locations recommended by the manufacturer in the vehicle-specific body repair manual, and ensure a Pulse Arc or STT welding machine is used.

How to use it

Use this document to justify the necessity of vehicle-specific body repair manual research for MIG brazing locations, and to defend the requirement for specialized Pulse Arc or STT welding equipment on FCA/Stellantis repairs.
