Solder is used to connect electric wires or other metal parts together. Solder poisoning occurs when someone swallows solder in large amounts. It can also cause burns to the skin.
This is for information only and not for use in the treatment or management of an actual poison exposure. If you have an exposure, you should call your local emergency number (such as 911) or the National Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222.
Poisonous IngredientNote: This list may not include all sources of solder.
SymptomsSymptoms for lead:
Symptoms for tin and zinc chloride:
Symptoms for ethylene glycol:
Symptoms for cadmium:
Symptoms for bismuth:
Symptoms for silver:
Symptoms for antimony:
Symptoms for copper:
Seek immediate medical help. Do NOT make a person throw up unless told to do so by Poison Control or a health care professional.
If the chemical is on the skin or in the eyes, flush with lots of water for at least 15 minutes.
If the chemical was swallowed, immediately give the person water, unless instructed otherwise by a health care provider. Do NOT give water if the patient is having symptoms (such as vomiting, convulsions, or a decreased level of alertness) that make it hard to swallow.
Before Calling EmergencyDetermine the following information:
The National Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222) can be called from anywhere in the United States. This national hotline number will let you talk to experts in poisoning. They will give you further instructions.
This is a free and confidential service. All local poison control centers in the United States use this national number. You should call if you have any questions about poisoning or poison prevention. It does NOT need to be an emergency. You can call for any reason, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
See: Poison control center - emergency number
What to expect at the emergency roomThe health care provider will measure and monitor your vital signs, including temperature, pulse, breathing rate, and blood pressure. Symptoms will be treated as appropriate. You may receive:
How well you do depends on the amount of poison swallowed and how quickly treatment is received. The faster you get medical help, the better the chance for recovery.
Outcomes depend on the type of poison swallowed:

One old trick to solder two wires is to twist them together and twist some solder round them as well, wrap them in foil and apply a lighted match.
Solder remover is an object or device for removing solder, usually from printed circuit boards. It can be in the form of a copper mesh called solder wick, a separate vacuum device you use alongside a soldering iron, or a desoldering iron. A desoldering iron gets hot like a soldering iron, but the tip is hollow and there is a squeeze bulb mounted on top. So you heat up the solder on the board and then use the bulb to vacuum up the solder and then deposit in a safe place such as a can or ash tray.
with solder
Cold solder joint: occurs when the joint doesn't fully melt, leading to poor electrical conductivity. Insufficient solder: not enough solder used, resulting in weak or incomplete bonds. Excessive solder: too much solder applied, causing bridging or short circuits. Solder balling: result of excess solder that forms into small balls. Solder splashes: occurs when excess solder splashes onto nearby components. Solder flux residue: leftover residue from flux can lead to corrosion or poor connections over time.
Solder is a metallic alloy
solder is use for to make jewles
A reel of solder used for joining electrical circuits together on circuit boards. Solder is made of a mixture of tin and lead and sometimes has has flux (a form of acid) in the core of the solder to ensure a clean surface for the solder to flow into.

The solder wont stick.
This is known as solder bridging, where an unintended connection forms between two conductive paths due to excess solder. It can cause short circuits and impact device functionality. Preventing solder bridging involves using the correct amount of solder and properly inspecting and cleaning the solder joints after soldering.
The majority of boat props are aluminum. You can't solder it, it has to be welded or heli arced.
To remove melted solder, either as clean-up from a poor solder job, or in preparation for removing a component.
Depends on the solder used. If silver solder is used it is actually stronger than the pipe itself.
