    Thank you! Finally someone who answered my question about flux and showed how to use it (before soldering). Thanks so much. Everyone just kept telling me what it was for and I was like "I KNOW WHAT IT'S FOR I WANNA KNOW HOW TO USE IT!"
    You're the only one who took the few seconds to say "You just do it like this." Thank so much!

      So was I. My jaw dropped to the floor. Within 5 mins I was trying and laughing like a maniac watching. Great technique man! The argument of air bubbles getting trapped it's not quite true. The crawling takes place because of the temperature difference in both cases. I found that one or two extra seconds of contact literally "seal the deal." Great job man, thanks for sharing.

    You made it look easy. I've never seen anyone use flux, its just heat the wire and let the solder run together. Looks crappy and take a second longer, but soaking the flux on there and just dropping the solder looked great and super easy and quick with no run offs or mess.

    Sometimes it will not work without flux. I always solder with Flux. Even on Circuit boards, I always use flux. I always just tin the Iron and touch the contacts and only 1/4 Secound and the joint is ready, cause the flux works so awsome and lets the solder flow perfect.

  • @stephanienicholson4770
    @stephanienicholson4770 3 года назад

    For Mil-spec soldering the second method is the only method. When you solder from tip you get contamination in the solder which could cause it to break. However, I have soldered may non aviation/critical applications as done in the first method with great success. One thing you didnt mention was the length of time the iron stays on the wire. The more you heat the wire the more solder with wick into the joint. You want just enough heat to fill the joint and go no further. A solid wire(solder filled stranded wire) beyond the splice can break.
    There are others but this is a large standard for soldering quality. IPC J-STD-001

    I agree... acid based paste fluxes should not be used on anything electrical... especially if you are going to heat shrink it. The flux has water and acid in it and will eventually cause severe corrosion underneath the heat shrink tubing or under the insulated portions of wire near the solder joint.

  • @andrewmbrackett
    @andrewmbrackett 12 лет назад

    Good video, and I love that you introduced flux, but the first method will make weaker solder joints that are unreliable in hot or vibrating environments. A combination of the two methods is ideal. You should always tin your tip to prevent oxidizing and to keep it transferring heat efficiently, but if you touch the connection between the iron and the wire with solder, it will coat it quickly and thoroughly, prevent melted insulation, and it will help keep your iron tinned for you.

  • @bentsnake
    @bentsnake 12 лет назад

    Awrk! Wait! Oatey makes stuff for plumbers, their stuff is acid-base. It's not for electronics because at some point the acid will cause corrosion.
    What you want is resin/rosin base paste flux (the liquid is a pain, I think). This is on both eBay and Amazon, but it's just about as easy to get the Radio Shack stuff, which is their catalog number 64-022.
    You're right about using flux, of course. It actually only takes a little, but the rule is "there's no such thing as too much flux."

  • @dillwiggle2
    @dillwiggle2 8 лет назад +2

    Im not an expert but i think you should be using ROSIN core flux (not acid core flux for plumbing) and /or rosin core solder. The joint will hold, but over time can cause problems because of the acid in the solder.

  • @ihearvoices22
    @ihearvoices22 11 лет назад

    yes but typically solder has flux in it so you don't need to brush any more on. sometimes i do like to use added flux like this to aid in the solder flow like illustrated in this video.

  • @maxjones7958

    Cover the soldered area with some dielectric silicone grease before you heat shrink for outdoor application to be absolutely sure of waterproofing.

  • @tedokinta
    @tedokinta 12 лет назад

    you can use everything that can make temperature more than 150 C. I often use a lighter or the upper part of the soldering iron heater when I dont have a lighter bacouse it is cooler than the tip itself, but you must be very careful with both of them because it can couse damage to the heat shink.

    Many years before he published his well-known American Dictionary of the English Language, he published a much smaller, more radical dictionary he called a Compendious Dictionary that included spellings such as w-i-m-m-e-n for "women" "favor" without a "u" (1), "theater" with an "-er" instead of an "-re" at the end, "sulfur" with an "f" and not a "ph" in the middle, and "aluminium" as "aluminum (2)."

  • @RoddyDa
    @RoddyDa 10 лет назад +4

    A small ad on trick. if you want to make it waterproof and only have normal shrink tube, try to add a small amount of glue from a glue gun on the cable, then put the shrink tube in place with the tube around the glue, heat it up so the tubing shrinks and you will get an even stronger and watertight joint:-)

    TFS! I have watched a few soldering videos and this is the best so far, thanks for being straight to the point and not wasting a lot of time. Is it safe to assume the sponge is damp? And also something I didn't see was at least a mention of a fan for the fumes. I thought that was necessary.

  • @NameHere02
    @NameHere02 11 лет назад

    As do I, but in some cases flux (in the form of paste, or liquid) can be helpful, such as with surface mount, or in cases where the flux core isn't enough (ie, more heavily oxidized parts/boards). You just have to make sure you use a suitable flux.
    For example, if you're reballing a BGA, you want to use a no-clean flux because you can't remove it from under the IC.
    Other times you may use a stronger flux on more oxidized parts, and clean it with a solvent afterward.

    I was looking for help because the rosin I bought is suuuuper hard. I am still unsure what to do about it. Now I heat it, quickly smear it (then it instantly hardens again) and then I heat it with the soldering tip while applying solder. It does not work nearly as smooth as what you are doing.

  • @dandnb2010
    @dandnb2010 11 лет назад

    if your solder is flux core then you could easily solder it with the second method he used. if its not then I wouldn't even attempt to solder it. either way you want some decent flux regardless of whether the solder is flux core or not to achieve the best possibly results.

  • @DavidJJJ
    @DavidJJJ 7 лет назад +2

    Great video, apart from a few things (well, six) you do wrong here.
    One is that you use acid flux, the wrong type of flux for this (as other people have mentioned).
    Secondly, you apply the solder to the iron first which de-natures the solder.
    Third, the solder is too thick.
    Fourth, you allow the solder to wick under the insulation which causes the wire to break over time.
    Fifth, you use a dry sponge to clean the tip, it should be damp.
    Sixth, you put the tip into acid flux which corrodes the tip.

    • @johnbhancock
      @johnbhancock 7 лет назад +1

      Thinner solder gives you m ore control over how much solder you uyse. Using too much can result in a dry joint and thje solder wicking into the wire which reduces the flexibility of the joint and can result in breakages.
