Strength and melting point.
Note that "silver soldering" isn't soldering using soft solder that has some
silver in it, such as tin+silver or tin+silver+copper. Those kinds of soft
solder are often called "silver bearing solder". Silver soldering is really
a kind of brazing. For silver soldering (brazing) copper strap, sil-phos
brazing rods are often used (sil-phos = silver + phosphorus, the balance of
the composition being copper).
