2. Solderability - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solderability

   Solderability when using lead-free alloys can differ significantly from solderability when using lead based alloys. Noble metals may be easy to solder but they have brittle joints. The metals in the good category require a large amount of heat therefore oxidation is an issue. To overcome this a flux is required.

3. Solder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solder

   When lead-free solder is used in wave soldering, a slightly modified solder pot may be desirable (e.g. titanium liners or impellers) to reduce maintenance cost due to increased tin-scavenging of high-tin solder. Lead-free solder is prohibited in critical applications, such as aerospace, military and medical projects, because joints are likely ...

4. Soldering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldering

   The solder used in the process can vary in composition, with different alloys used for different applications. Common solder alloys include tin-lead, tin-silver, and tin-copper, among others. Lead-free solder has also become more widely used in recent years due to health and environmental concerns associated with the use of lead.

5. Solder alloys - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solder_alloys

   Soldering copper pipes using a propane torch and a lead-free solder. Solder is a metallic material that is used to connect metal workpieces. The choice of specific solder alloys depends on their melting point, chemical reactivity, mechanical properties, toxicity, and other properties. Hence a wide range of solder alloys exist, and only major ...

6. Wiped joint - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiped_joint

   The lead would not stick to it, and the plumbers soil would be washed off later. Heat was applied with a blowtorch and when the joint was hot, the end of a bar of solder was applied and melted onto the joint. The molten solder gives a 'pasty' behaviour, owing to its eutectic properties and can be worked for some time before it hardens.

   Lead was often mixed into oil-based paints before 1978, the year lead paint was banned for residential use in the U.S. Over time, oil-based paints will crack in a distinctive alligator scale-like ...
