Why should you NOT repair heating elements by soldering?

The solder will most likely melt at the operating temperature of the heater.


What temperature does solder melt?

Solder is a metal alloy that is fusible. The kind typically used in electrical soldering melts at 370 degrees Fahrenheit, which is equivalent to 188 degrees Celsius.


Can you mend exhausts by soldering?

Welding or brazing perhapsReplacement is best Solder has too low a melting point to be good in such a high temperature environment. After running the car for a few miles, you could apply the solder to the muffler and it will melt without a torch or soldering iron.

What sterling silver to use for soldering jewelry?

Typically one solders sterling silver with silver solders. There is not a solder called "sterling solder." You can choose from an array of silver solders ranging from easy (extra soft) through hard. Soft solders have lower silver content and melt at a lower temperature. Hard solders have higher silver content and flow at higher temperatures. If you are doing multiple solder joints on a single piece of solder you will need to use several grades of solder. However, if you are just creating a single solder joint than it is best to use a soft or medium solder.


What temperature is a soldering iron?

A soldering iron is a metal hand held probe type object heated by gas or electric for melting solder (a mixture of tin and lead). Solder is normally used for joining electrical wires and making soldered, leak proof, connections between pieces of copper pipe. It is however very hot, reaching temperatures of over 400 degrees Celsius. It is a tool (usually copper) that is heated and then applied to a joint to melt the solder and heat the metal so it will accept the solder. Some are heated by electricity some are heated in a small furnace. See "What is soldering iron" vipprogrammer.com/soldering-stations-manufacturers-36_116 it heats up your solder and makes it melt, it makes the joints in your circuit firm. it makes a little blob of solder.


Why does solder melt before lead and tin?

Solder melts before pure tin or pure lead because the molecules of the tin and the lead which make up the solder have not bonded chemically (they have only been mixed together so there has been not chemical reaction), so can easily vibrate quicker, therefore they will melt quicker.


What is the melting temperature for epoxy glue?

The melting point of solder is around 300 degrees C. The low melting point is the reason it is useful for soldering.The melting point of solder will depend on what the solder of composed of. The most common solder has a melting point of 361.4 degrees F.


How does a soldering iron works?

An electric heating element heats the tip just above the melting temperature of the solder being used.


Odometers doesn't works Plymouth voyager 1998?

Pull the gauge cluster out and use a low volt solder iron, and re-solder the points where it plugs in to the cluster, just heat it until the solder starts to melt.
