The cellular structure and unique properties of aluminum foams are the reason of problems concerning their cutting and bonding. The content of the paper includes characterization of the essence of properties and application of aluminum foams, limitations and chances of aluminum foams soldering. The aim of the research is consideration of possibilities and problems of soldering AlSi foams and AlSi - SiC composite foams as well as mechanical properties. The possibility of soldering AlSi foams and AlSi - SiC composite foams using ZnAl solders was confirmed and higher tensile strength of the joint than the parent material was ascertained
