Resistance soldering is a soldering method that sometimes useful for hobby work. In this soldering methid an electrical current is flowed through one work piece, the joint and then the other work piece. Current through a resistances on the way generates heat. Most heat is normally generated on the joint because the resistance there is typically the highest.
Resistance soldering web page describes the technology in details. Resistancesoldering.com/ tells that resistance soldering can work also on some PCB work and similar applications. Resistance soldering is claimed to be good for soldering RF connectors, for example connectors on semi-rigid bases and central contacts on coaxial connectors. The soldering operation consists of clamping the parts to be assembled and adding a solder alloy. The heating process starts as soon as the foot pedal is activated and the temperature rises to the set temperature point. Look the video tutorial on soldering RF connector with resistance soldering.
According to Resistance Soldering Set document a resistance soldering set consists of a transformer that supplies 3 or 6 volts at a high current to stainless steel or carbon tips. The transformer is turned ON by a foot switch and OFF by an electronic timer (up to few seconds time). Since the soldering tips are hot only during the brief period of actual soldering, burning of wire insulation and melting of connector inserts are greatly reduced.
Build your own resistance solderer tells you how you can make your own resistance soldering iron with minimal investment. Resistance Soldering Unit is another page that gives instructions to build your own resistance soldering iron.
Wow, thanks a bunch m8
Maybe I should try something like that. I am getting tired of spammers….
Well penned commentary !! I am writing an ebook myself .Thanks !
Great blog you have here. So many websites like this cover subjects that can’t be found in magazines and newspapers. I don’t know how we got by 12 years ago with just print media.
Aw, this was a really quality post. In theory I’d like to write like this too – taking time and real effort to make a good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and never seem to get something done.
Very good text. I’ve found your site via Google and I’m really glad about the information you provide in your articles.
I wonder if that’s one of the reason that people don’t post comments? That even though you might like what someone writes, you’re not sure how to reply?

This is my first time i visit here. I found so many entertaining stuff in your blog, especially its discussion. From the tons of comments on your articles, I guess I am not the only one having all the leisure here! Keep up the excellent work.
Great blog you have here. Many blogs like this cover subjects that can’t be found in print. I don’t know how we got by 10 years ago with just magazines and newspapers.
o,So pretty,This is such an amazing series.Love all you website…I’m in such a happy place watching.
Great article and point of view, but I wish it was a bit more technical in nature.
Hi – really good site you have created. I enjoyed reading this posting. I did want to issue a remark to tell you that the design of this site is very aesthetically pleasing. I used to be a graphic designer, now I am a copy editor in chief for a magazine firm. I have always enjoyed working with information processing systems and am attempting to learn computer code in my free time (which there is never enough of lol).
Hi buddy, your blog’s design is simple and clean and i like it. Your blog posts are superb. Please keep them coming. Greets!!!
Hi, perhaps our entry might be off topic but anyhow, I’ve gone surfing about your weblog and it seems truly awesome. It is obvious you know your topic and you seem passionate about it. I am building a fresh weblog and I’m striving to make it look great, as well as offer top quality subject matter. I have discovered much at this website and also I look forward to a great deal more articles and will be coming back soon. Thanks.
the best soldering iron tip are those that are made up of iron coated with copper’`:
Very Interesting!
Thank You!
I just needed to say that I found your blog via Goolge and I am glad I did. Keep up the good work and I will make sure to bookmark you for when I have more free time away from the books. Thanks again!
Damn good post, I had a good time reading it.
i use those copper tipped soldering iron but after a month or two, my soldering iron tip would just break _
You should use a soldering iron tip that is planted with some other metal that can withstand molten solder and other chemicals used better than copper.
Older and very cheap irons typically use a bare copper tip, which is shaped with a file or sandpaper. This dissolves relatively rapidly into the solder, suffering pitting and erosion of the shape. Recent soldering iron tips tend to be copper plated with iron. Because iron is not readily dissolved by molten solder, the plated tip is more durable than a bare copper one. This is especially important when working at the higher temperatures needed for modern lead-free solders
Splendid clause my Quaker. This is exactly what Ive been looking for for quite a time now. You have my gratitude humanity.
I am really enjoying the theme/design of your blog. Do you ever run into any browser compatibility issues? A small number of my blog visitors have complained about my site not working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Chrome. Do you have any advice to help fix this issue?
I have sometimes run into browser compatibility issues.
Sometimes I get complaints on issues with uses that use less popular browsers….
Hello actually awesome internet web site!! Guy .. Beautiful .. Great .. Ill bookmark your website and consider the feeds moreover. I am pleased to search out beneficial details appropriate here inside of the published material, thanks for sharing…
I think the issue is a little meaning, no matter how end? I agree to write the male character, view; and I think a lot of people can’t accept the results. Switch all things difficult! Continue to come on!
