How to solder wire and turpentine – Notes you need to know

Some items to prepare when soldering tin wire

How to perform soldering of tin wire and turpentine to create a beautiful, durable solder joint

After you have prepared the necessary materials, you begin to follow the instructions on how to solder tin and turpentine below to get the best quality weld:
● Step 1: Use a cloth dipped in Putin solution to clean components. If you do not intend to tin or green, you can skip this step.
● Step 2: If you are using a 40W or 60W soldering iron, you do not need to adjust the temperature accordingly. However, if you are using a different type of torch, you need to adjust the temperature of the torch from 320 degrees Celsius or 350 degrees Celsius.
● Step 3: Apply a thin layer of turpentine to the places to be soldered
● Step 4: Heat the component feet by placing the soldering iron relative to the component feet at an angle of 45 degrees and at a distance of about 0.5mm for no more than 1 second
● Step 5: Slowly insert the tin tip between the solder wire and the component pin. In parallel with that, you need to put the soldering iron in until the amount of tin is just enough.
● Step 6: After that, you will take out the tin and keep the soldering iron in the same position and turn it around at a distance of 10 degrees. Next, quickly lift the torch firmly to create a beautiful weld.
● Step 7: Perform the above operations in turn with the places to be soldered. Clean the soldered areas after soldering by painting or using a cloth soaked in Putin.

Notes you need to know when performing soldering of tin and turpentine wires

Although you have followed the instructions above correctly, you still need to keep a few points in mind when performing tin and turpentine soldering:
● If you want to create an aesthetically pleasing and durable weld, you must completely melt the tin at a certain temperature. This will ensure the quality of the weld.
● When the weld fails, you need to fix it immediately using rosin. Use the tip of the soldering iron to press on the turpentine, then continue to press closer to the position of the weld to be repaired until the solder wire is completely melted, then lift the soldering iron.
● To avoid damaging semiconductor electronic components such as diodes, and transistors, you need to pay attention to using metal clamps when soldering for heat dissipation. For soldering irons with small capacity and depending on the position to be soldered, it should be about 1cm away from the component body for safety.
