PROCEDURE OF HARD SOLDERING WITH SILVER COATED WIRE

This procedure is used for soldering copper, steel, brass, copper alloys, nickel, etc.../p>

The PROCEDURE is as follows:/strong>

• The surface of the material must be cleaned of oxidation.
• The cleaning itself depends on the materials, so copper and brass are cleaned with acids (preferably with hydrochloric acid) or cleaning pastes.li>Acetylene and oxygen gases are most often used to heat the materials to be soldered.i>
• Heating is done using burners that are selected depending on the thickness of the material to be soldered./li>
• The material is heated to a temperature of 600-750*C.
• When the material is heated (the surface turns red), the wire is added to the heated place and spilled.
• During the soldering process with brass wire, BORAX powder is added.
• With light circular and straight movements of the torch, the silver solder is spread to the desired width.i>
• The process of soldering with silver wire gives a finer and cleaner weld than soldering with brass wire and BORAX powder
• After cooling the soldered piece, we clean it with a wire brush (brass or stainless steel brush) or with an arci cloth.
