Now soldering enameled wire can be a bit tricky some first, but rest assured! It is not that difficult to read, and you will improve with practice. But alas, Shenzhou Cable is there to assist you! This article will teach you to solderable magnet wire properly. We will also provide you with important tips on how to make strong connections, link you with the proper solder and flux, teach you how to avoid common mistakes, and better your Oem DIY projects with pro advice. Let’s get started!
When soldering enameled wire, the first thing that must be done is to remove the enamel coating from the portion of the wire where the connection is to be made. This is very important! Removing the enamel requires careful scraping or sanding of a small section of wire until the shiny copper appears beneath. After scraping, you need to plan well to clean the wire. Absorb any dust or bits of enamel that may still be left on the wire with a dry paper. This will prevent any issues when soldering.
Now that you have prepped the wire, you are ready to SOLDER! With one hand hold the enameled wire, and with the other hand the soldering iron. Get a handle on both of them. Now set the hot soldering iron against the clean copper section of the wire. Just give it some time for the wire to heat up. The wire will then transfer enough heat to the solder you are using to melt it. Once you have solder melted, straighten the wire from the solderer and allow the wire to cool down. Congratulations! This means that you successfully soldered the enameled wire.
There are several important things to remember when you connect enameled wire, so that you ensure a good connection: Make sure the wire is clean and does not have any enamel on it (first). The solder will not adhere properly if the wire is dirty. They have enough friction and grip to keep this wire in place while you are working. This will enable you to use the right amount of solder to make a proper connection. You don’t want to use too little solder or too much, as both will cause problems.
If enchased in search of the right solder and flux for enameled wire it becomes very essential to properly select the right types for the job you are performing. Not all solder is the same! RoSIN-core solder works great with enameled wire. This solder is a little different in that it comes with a nephrite flux that eats through the enamel, which makes your work a lot easier. Also, it has a low melting point, which means it melts easily and is suitable to be used with enameled wire.
We will fail a lot but that's fine! Indeed, learning which common errors to avoid can lead to you getting better results. One common error in soldering enameled wire is leaving the enamel coating to close or long to the part you are soldering. Enamel was burnt as a result, which emitted toxic fumes that were unsafe to breathe.
The other mistake to avoid is overheating the wire. Overheating the wire can also damage it, as well as the insulation and the wire’s structure. Rather use just enough heat to just melt the solder, do not make the mistake of burning the enamel wire directly. A little caution with heat will spare you these common pitfalls.
