The invention relates to the technical field of super-hard abrasive tool manufacturing, in particular to Zr-containing multi-element nickel-based brazing filler metal, a preparation method and a brazing method thereof.The Zr-containing multi-element nickel-based brazing filler metal is prepared from, by mass, 10.0%-15.0% of Cr, 3.0%-5.0% of Si, 10.0%-20.0% of Cu, 3.0%-5.0% of Sn, 0-2.0% of Zr and the balance Ni, and alloy brazing filler metal is obtained through vacuum arc melting. Generation of brittle phases in the brazing filler metal is reduced, and the toughness of the brazing filler metal is improved; 2, a small amount of Zr element is added, so that the structure and crystal grains of the brazing filler metal are refined, and the size of an intermetallic compound is reduced; 3, a small amount of Zr element can reduce the melting point range and melting point of the brazing filler metal, the Zr modified brazing filler metal has a finer microstructure and enhanced second phase dispersion strengthening, 4, the Zr element can consume the Ni element in the brazing filler metal, erosion of the Ni element to the surface of the diamond is reduced, and graphitization of the diamond is inhibited.
