A layer of a metal or alloy is clad to at least one surface of a substrate of another metal or alloy. The cladding process is carried out at elevated temperatures in order to produce a metallurgical bond at the interface between the layer and substrate. Normally, a substantial portion of the layer liquifies at these temperatures; however, the layer is cooled in a region remote from the interface during the cladding process to confine the liquification to the immediate region about the interface.
