    - The process of joining two pieces of metal with a different fusible metal applied in a molten state is called as soldering.

    - In soldering process, two metals are joined with a metal having low melting point.

    - Filler material used in soldering is generally a lead-tin based alloy. It has low melting point of about 250 ÂșC. It also has much lower strength.

    - Welding can be defined as the method of joining two metals by applying heat but without the use of solder.
