Soldering Gun Kit
Question regarding soldering…?
So, I’m going to keep this short and simple.
I bought a “kit” for soldering. Came with a gun, rosin core solder, several different sized tips, and then there’s this little red tub of waxy yellow stuff.
What is that stuff and what is it used for? I get, and know how to use everything but that.
It’s called flux. It prevents oxidation of the parts you are going to solder, helps the solder to flow easily. You put a thin coating of flux on both parts to be joined. Heat the parts to be joined with the soldering gun or torch. Then touch the solder to the parts to be joined. Never melt the solder and allow it to drop onto the parts to be joined – you will not get a good connection.
There are leaded flux compounds and unleaded flux compounds. Be sure to use unleaded flux compounds on water pipe connections. You can use either kind on electrical connections.
The same applies to solder – leaded and unleaded.
They have solder with flux cores, but I have difficulty in making good copper pipe connections with it. I always apply a thin coat of unleaded flux before soldering – better connections and really not that much more labor or materials involved (cost wise).
