I just got this reply from Bernzomatic and thought it might be helpful for anyone else wondering ...

THE MAPP GAS FLAME WILL REACH A TEMPERATURE OF 3600 DEGREES F. ANY OF THE BRAZING ROD WOULD BE EFFECTIVE WITH MAPP. AS FOR MAPP AND OXYGEN, IT WOULD QUICKEN THE TIME NEEDED TO HEAT THE SURFACE FOR BRAZING. THE BRAZING ROD TYPE DEPENDS ON THE JOB AT HAND (TYPES OF METAL, PURPOSE, ETC.).
