Resistance soldering

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.

    Excuse me. All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.
    I am from Nicaragua and also am speaking English, give please true I wrote the following sentence: “Adriana lima nose job: the triumph is remembered of order above the checked album time and health below that septum.”

  8. Thank you for a very clear and helpful post. I am definitely a violator of many of these rules. I often find myself conflicted when writing a blog post because I see myself writing more than people want to read, but I feel that I have to do the subject matter justice by thoroughly covering it. I feel that by following some of these rules I end up cutting out important aspects to the discussion. I guess you have to find a balance.

    Just wanted to say that you have some great content on your website. If it’s OK I would like to use some of it on my blog. If I link back to your website do I have your permission to do so?

    Do a specific request what specific information you plan to use, how and where, and then I can check the situation to give permission or not.
    Some bloggers have for example asked to post parts of some articles to their blogs, and many times I have given permission to that when they have provided proper attribution for the material (source mentioned, link back to site). But permission to use material is handled case by case.

  11. I need some advice for my blog….I like your layout. Can you help me?
