That is the best yet explanation I've seen. Good job
Wow, thanks!
@@Got2Learn 😂
I just got out of jewelry class and was still confused. Thank you for explaining it so clearly with cutaway views!! I feel so relieved to understand how it works now.
😇😇😇
I am learning plumbing from someone who telle me to learn from RUclips but also tells me that your advice doesn't work in practice, but your advice makes sense to me if I apply it practically.
I'll just prove to him that I know what's up and maybe he'll come around
You got it 🤜🤛
Great vid. Remember that flux can never, ever replace mechanical abrasion to clean the surfaces to be wetted
Yes, exactly!
Been soldering copper joints for a few years now and never really understood how and why the liquid solder seemed to get sucked into joints of a heated surface. Really appreciate the animations too
😉😉😉
Your animations are next level
Thank you so much Joe!!
Your videos have been invaluable! I can now solder leak free joints with confidence on the first go around. Thanks for all that you do.
Awesome!!
Excellent Video .Very good explanation, best explanation of this effect that I've seen on any plumbing vid👌🏼
Thank you so much Abdiel!!!
As a DYIer I’ve been successful at this process but seeing this confirms why I’ve been doing it right. Thanks for this great video
👌👌👌
Every Canadian should sound like Got2learn.
hehe :)
Except the girls!
Heheee thanks for the laugh Bryan!!!
@@bryanm5233 No the girls to that would be hot
A great, easy to understand, explanation of a scientific principle! Keep up the great work!
Many thanks!
All i heard was to have a clean joint before soldering.
Got it dude!
Starting a home bathroom remodeling project this week. I’m going to do the plumbing myself and your videos are the best, well explained that gives me the upmost confidence to take on this challenge. Thank you for sharing.
😇😇😇
out of sight!!! another superb demo and explanation
Glad you liked it :)
Amazing videos. Straightforward, informative and quick. Thank you for making them!
Best video on how soldering works
👌👌👌
I wish you were my teacher in school... I would have learned way more than I did!
Thank you so much!
excellent and concise - 5 stars
Thank you for this great tutoriel
This is a seriously awesome well explained video.
Thank you.
I truly appreciate it.
Have a good day.
ThNk you so much!!
Compliments to the illustrator.
That was extremely well explained bro. People should be hitting that like button a lot more. Be safe and stay healthy 👍
Thank you so much Viper, stay safe buddy!! :))
How come a plumber explained capillary action better than my science professor?
Haha, thanks!!
Through a better, non-rushed presentation.
They actually use it
What a great video with clear explanation, thanks a lot !
🙏🙏🙏
been sweating for years, great video
Great video as usual Got@Learn.It seems that many people are under the misconception that when pressing pipe fittings the pipe does not need to be properly cleaned,deburred and reamed and I can see those people ending up with leaking press joints and wasted money and materials.
Hehe yeah,,just doesn't need fluxing :)
@@Got2Learn Sorry to interject Got2Learn,you forgot to add that pressing copper pipe and fittings also does not need solder,of course,and also doesn't require that shut off valves shut off completely like soldering copper pipe requires.
Yes, forgot, thanks Nelson!!!!!!!
Nicely explained. Thanks to your channel and others my soldering skills are improving. One skill I see overlooked or ar least I haven't come across is how to solder multiple fittings in proximity to each other. I find it especially difficult on vertical runs. Im always afraid that as I solder the next fitting, the bond in the previous one will be broken.
Thank you so so much, please share if you can, it helps tremendously!!!
Concise and precise
👊👊👊
Very well explained, better understanding help not forget to do the things well because it make sens doing it. Thanks!
Thanks Robert!!
that was an excellent explanation.
😇😇😇
Best teacher thanks.
🙏🙏🙏
Thanks to you for teaching us.nice video.👍👍☺☺☺☺
Most welcome, please share if you can, cheers!!
Wow this video was awesome and so intuitive when explained..
Thanks..
Thank you :)
as always a great video. Thanx for making and sharing this.
Thanks Spy!!! ;)
Thanks very much for this video
Thank you for another great video!
You are most welcome!!!
This is a great vid, but you want to use something abrasive to clean the surface. You actually don’t want to use flux until you have first cleaned the pipe and the fitting. And you don’t want to use too much flux, it’s acidic and if left in the fitting or on the fitting it will eventually corrode…
Saw quite a few DIYers commenting. Goodluck, but as a plumber I would recommend just using a sharkbite and transitioning the piping to pex.
The sharkbite isn’t recommended by most plumbers, I’m not a huge fan of them myself. (They work with a spring tension ring and a gasket, you push the pipe into this ring and when the pipe is fully seated it causes the ring to clamp down sealing the gasket.)
It’s not the greatest connection that can be made, and not to insult you all, but… Id trust that more than you guys just learning how to sweat.
And it’s not horrible i guess to use a sharkbite, they are rated for underground burial.
T un osti génie mon homme. Exellent explication.
Merci 😇
Great explanation
Glad you liked it :)
Awesome graphics. Good stuff.
Thanks Billy!!!
Every time I read solder in one of your posts I hear the distinctly Canada accent playing in my head
:))))) .........solder..............solder...........solder.......... :))))
Got2Learn yo it’s crazy hot out here already man. Work has not missed a beat here yet. How’s everything been up there so far?
It's getting hot here too man, dunno how the heck you guys do it over in Texas, respect man!
Got2Learn no offense to the Texas guys in here. But I’m in southern Arizona man. Where the real heat is. No water heaters needed for the next 5 months. Code for water main is only 12” for residential!! You can’t get cold water from the city for shit and don’t dare blast yourself with the garden hose right after you turn it on. 3rd degree burns for sure!!
Oh sorry, I remembered you as a Texan hehe, yeah Arizona is crazy hot man, I honestly have no idea how you deal with that kinda heat man, kudos to you!
Great videos on solder on this channel. I learned what I needed and was able to solder what I needed to with ease
🤗🤗🤗
good video as always!
Glad you enjoyed!
Waw 😮 first time her this information.
and I am Subscribed! Thank-you!
🙏🙏🙏
I need to catch up on your past videos. You did a great job on this and great content. If everyone would use 4 sheets there would be no shortage! Lol! Hope you are doing well.
Thanks Ray, hehe yeah, there would be no shortages! ;)
"If everyone would use 4 sheets there would be no shortage!",that is true however if everyone used only "4 sheets" people would have to respect "social distancing" whether they liked it or not because the stench from the people alll around would force people to keep their proper distance from each other,not to mention the tremendous amouts of time and money people would end up spending to disinfect and launder their underwear.YUCK!!!
@@nelsonechevarria7009 this is where the gloves come in and the 😷 lol
I finally understood why the freakin’ solder fills the whole joint and even goes up ⬆️
Nice animation
Thanks Paul, have a great day!!
Great information again thanks.
Thanks Tuna :)))
Very helpful video thanks for posting G2L 👍
Glad it was helpful, thanks Rogue!!!!!
Ever had an issue where you cant seem to get capillary action to happen? I was putting a brass fitting on a copper pipe so I could convert to PEX and there was so much space between the fitting and the pipe the solder would just fall out. 3/4" pex to sweat fitting on the end of a fin style radiator pipe. I'd say the gap was a solid 32nd all the way around.
Brass fittings take longer to get to the right temperature because they are thicker than copper fittings 😉
Excellent! Does this explanation of how solder flows in a joint finally put to rest the notion that solder "flows to the source of heat"?
It doesn't really follow the heat, but without it, the solder can't melt.
so do you need to move the heat around the fitting to get the solder to take all the way around or does capillary action take care of that?
I have a question that might be a stupid question, sorry if it is: when to you use a solder as opposed to a weld? (Again sorry if this is a dumb question, I’m just now learning all this stuff :)
Will the capillary action also work when soft soldering a threaded joint of two steel parts? Thank you for feed back
Awesome!
Thanks Kim!
perfect!
Thank you 🙏👍
Welcome 👍
👍
Do you know how to silver solder or only soft solder?
Both.
How much space is required between the joints?
it is called capillary attraction
We in Kuwait do
not use copper pipes, but we use polypropylene pipes
Yeah those are glued :)
Got2Learn yeah Glued with heat
I would like to get some lead free tinning flux , but I'm struggling to find it in the UK , anyone on this side of the pond got any ideas/links?
Here: www.amazon.co.uk/Oatey-Lead-Free-Tinning-1-7oz/dp/B001B0A3OQ/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=tinning+flux&qid=1587918192&sr=8-1
@@Got2Learn that's great , last time I checked Amazon the shipping was more expensive than the product !!!
:) enjoy!
whats the difference between soldering and brazing?
The temperature, anything under 842f is soldering, anything over is brazing.
Capillary action
Cool ❤
10/10
Thanks you!!
Animation game strong 😁👌🏻💪🏻💯
:)
I want a Got2learn sweater 🙏🏻🙏🏻😫😫
Save your money.
Got2Learn nooooooo 😭😭😭😭😭🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Oh yeah!
I am waiting bro
:)
I soldered a few joints myself today...I suppose I shouldnt have applied the flux with my fingers then haha
Never apply flux with fingers, only clean brush.
@@Got2Learn I know that now after watching your video. But on some level even before seeing it, I knew I should be using a brush.
😉😉
Remember to never over heat the pipes to be solder.
I'm not sure what it was about my soldering but man I had to heat the living shit out of it to get the solder to melt. I used silver solder to as I was told its easier and stronger
Brazing...
@@conqwiztadore2213 the temp I got it I should of just use the Tig!
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
POV this is a school assignment
I want this lecture in a hindi language for better understanding...!!!!!!
wicking.
Yes!!
Silver solder is where it's at, soft solder is oldschool. Haven't u upgraded your regulations over there?
In Australia we have had silver soldering for 15+ years
Superb Video ⚡🙏⚡
