Can lead be airborne when soldering?
Lead is unlikely to become airborne during hand soldering because the operation occurs at a temperature much lower than the boiling point of the lead.
How do you join sheet lead?
lead burning or lap joint soldering
What type of soldering is a soldering gun normally used for?
Soldering irons are usually used with rosin core solder. Sometimes it has lead in it but often not since its toxic. Most of the time its for heavy soldering like heavy gauge wires or older circuit boards since the tips are fairly big. They also have a decent temperature control so anything that is delicate like large SMD soldering.
How do you stick two Lead sheets?
Lead "burning, Soldering with the use of lap joints
What is soldering lead?
Lead solder is a mixture (alloy) of lead and tin (in different proportions) that has a lower melting point than either of the components. It is used to join metal components together in electronics, lead and zinc came in stained glass windows etc. There are also silver and gols solders for jewelry.
How is Sal Ammoniac used in stained glass?
salammoniac is used to clean and tin the soldering iron that solders the lead that holds the stained glass together.
What is the purpose of soldering?
Soldering is the process of using a bubble of hot metal to bond two electronic components or circuits together.
What is the purpose of a cold heat soldering iron?
The purpose of a cold heat soldering iron is to fuse electronic components, pipes and other metal materials together by melting solder as a connector which hardens as it cools. You can learn how a cold heat soldering iron works and it's different purpose at the HowStuffWorks website.
What is the joiner alloy in soldering made up of?
There are a number of different alloys that can be used as joiner alloys in soldering. Which one you choose would depend on which metals you want to join and whether you want your joiner alloy to be lead-free or not.
