jet soldering
Jet Soldering is a soldering technique that uses a high speed gas flame to melt the solder and join metal parts.

Key Features:

  • Gas Flame Heating: A blowtorch can provide the gas flame, thereby producing all the heat needed for the melting of the solder.
  • Precision Application: Jet flame allows heating to be directed straight into it, therefore making it usable in very small or delicate parts.
  • Flux Application: The method includes the use of fluxes to clean the metal surfaces and prepare them for solder flow.

Jet Soldering is usually used in industries of electronics, plumbing, and metalworking. It can produce joint parts that are strong and durable, as joints are made mechanical stress tolerant and corrosion resistant. This is particularly useful in making parts where temperature control is necessary and localized heating is often required.
