In a method of brazing directionally solidified or monocrystalline components, the brazing deposit and the directionally solidified or monocrystalline component are moved through a heated zone. In this zone, the temperature applied by a heating system is greater than the liquidus temperature of the brazing alloy and less than the local incipient melting temperature of the component. A thermal gradient is applied between the component and the brazing deposit.

[ What is claimed:] [1.] A method of brazing directionally solidified or monocrystalline components comprising steps of: moving a directionally solidified or monocrystalline component having a brazing alloy deposit thereon through a heated zone of a heating system so as to heat the brazing alloy deposit above the liquidus temperature of the brazing alloy but below the local incipient melting temperature of the component and provide a thermal gradient between the component and the brazing alloy deposit; and cooling the molten brazing alloy deposit so as to effect directional solidification of the molten brazing alloy deposit.
