Brazing sheet, manufacturing method thereof, and aluminum structure brazing method

Abstract

A brazing sheet is provided for use in brazing performed in an inert gas atmosphere both using flux and without using flux. The brazing sheet includes an aluminum-based core, an intermediate material layered on the core and being composed of an aluminum alloy that contains Mg: 0.40-3.0 mass %, and a filler metal layered on the intermediate material and being composed of an aluminum alloy that contains Si: 6.0-13.0 mass % and Mg: less than 0.050 mass %. The brazing sheet satisfies the formula below where M [mass %] is the Mg content in the intermediate material, ti [μm] is the thickness of the intermediate material, and tf [μm] is the thickness of the filler metal: tf≥10.15×ln(M×ti)+3.7.
