  2. 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 ...

  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. Industry of Kosovo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industry_of_Kosovo

    Kosovo was in very serious economic and social situation, i.e. it was in state of emergency. There was an immediate need for shelters, food, housing and refurbishment of houses and apartments. After the emergency phase, the commercialization process started in factories which failed to resume production in many factories (except few). [3]

  5. Soldering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldering

    Additionally, tin is a more corrosive metal, and can eventually lead to the failure of solder baths [clarification needed]. [36] Lead-free construction has also extended to components, pins, and connectors. Most of these pins used copper frames, and either lead, tin, gold or other finishes. Tin finishes are the most popular of lead-free finishes.

  6. Wiped joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiped_joint

    The solder grade used for leadworking is plumber's solder (80% lead / 20% tin). [ i ] Although this is thought of as a high melting point solder amongst lead-tin solders, the solidus is relatively constant for all of these solders and it is the liquidus which climbs from the eutectic point at Sn 63% / Pb 37%.

  7. 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.

  8. Lead smelting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead_smelting

    Lead scrap includes lead-acid batteries, cable coverings, pipes, sheets and lead coated, or terne bearing, metals. Solder, product waste and dross may also be recovered for its small lead content. Most secondary lead is used in batteries. To recover lead from a battery, the battery is broken and the components are classified.

  9. Filler metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filler_metal

    Many gas welding processes, such as lead burning, are typically autogenous and a separate wire filler rod of the same metal is only added if there is a gap to fill. Some metals, such as lead or Birmabright aluminium alloy, use offcut strips of the same metal as filler. Steels are usually welded with a filler alloy made specially for the purpose.
