Abstract
A metal block has a joint element. The joint element is defined between a trench in an outer surface of the metal block and a hole extending from the outer surface of the metal block to the interior space. The trench is configured such that when heat is applied to the joint element the trench reduces dissipation of the heat throughout the metal block. The hole is configured to receive a metal tube.
