A. NO! You should not use JFC PRO (JFC), or solder or any other bonding material that melts at a lower temperature than copper, on any natural gas or LPG lines. JFC PRO (JFC) will bond the copper and is compatible with natural gas and LPG; however, JFC PRO (JFC) will un-bond at approximately 400 degrees F and would allow gas to feed the fire. This is also true with any solder. Gas lines should be constructed according to local, state, and federal guidelines. Copper melts at 1984 degrees F (1085 degrees C).
