A composite material made of continuous aluminum oxide fibers reinforcing an aluminum matrix to form a strand (10) where the strands are formed into a structure (8) and brazed together in a vacuum using an aluminum brazing alloy (16). The brazing alloy (16) is preferably an aluminum silicon alloy. In winding filament wound vessels, an electric current may be used to heat the strands to cause a coating of the aluminum brazing alloy to melt. |
