  2. Soldering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldering

    A soldering copper is a tool with a large copper head and a long handle which is heated with a small direct flame and used to apply heat to sheet metal such as tin plated steel for soldering. Typical soldering coppers have heads weighing between one and four pounds.

  3. Solder ring fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solder_ring_fitting

    To obtain functional joints, the inside of the fitting and the outside of the copper pipe are cleaned using steel wool or cleaning tape, flux paste is applied, the pipe is inserted into the fitting and heat is applied from a portable butane torch or propane torch until a ring of solder shows at the edges of the fitting. To obtain a durable ...

  4. 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.

  5. Solderability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solderability

    Both quantitative and qualitative tests for solderability exist. [6] The two most common testing methods are the 'dip and look' method and wetting balance analysis.In both of these tests, the soldered pieces undergo an accelerated aging process before being tested for solderability, to take into consideration the time a component was in storage prior to mounting to final assembly.

  6. Copper tubing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_tubing

    Solder fittings are smooth and easily slip onto the end of a tubing section. The joint is then heated using a torch, and the solder is melted into the connection. When the solder cools, it forms a very strong bond that can last for decades. Solder-connected rigid copper is the most popular choice for water supply lines in modern buildings.

  7. Flux (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux_(metallurgy)

    For example, tin-lead solder [5] attaches very well to copper metal, but poorly to its oxides, which form quickly at soldering temperatures. By preventing the formation of metal oxides, flux enables the solder to adhere to the clean metal surface, rather than forming beads, as it would on an oxidized surface.

  9. Filler metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filler_metal

    A hard, but more expensive and sometimes brittle, facing alloy is deposited onto the wear surfaces of mild steel tools. Four types of filler metals exist—covered electrodes, bare electrode wire or rod, tubular electrode wire, and welding fluxes. Sometimes non-consumable electrodes are included as well, but since these metals are not consumed ...
