Best Way To Solder Small Wires

BTW the wire shown in the OP photo appear to be silver plated PTFE insulated.

Best way to solder small wires. Ad Quality Solder Wire Drawing Machine. First you need to strip the wires then add your heat shrink tubing physically connect the wiressolder the wires together and then shrink that heat shrink tubing to make a waterproof connection.

Apply the solder to the top side of the wire opposite the soldering irons tip. When melting the solder to the wires try not to touch the iron with the solder. This will help conduct heat to the wire.

So now you know what tools to use for soldering im going to show you the five simple steps to solder. Find a small piece of sturdier wire 20AWG might be good. The wires are so small that the solder doesnt really stick so what you have to do is as quickly as possible melt the solder onto the iron but with the joint DIRECTLY in the middle of the two.

Soldering small wires to very small connections such as unused pins on QFPs First tin the connection point. If you do it right you get a big melted bead ON the iron but with the wires running through the middle of it. Try to coat the wires as evenly as possible so theres a thin layer of flux on them.

This has a smaller metal area so wont need as long to melt the solder This time I usually put the wire through the hole in the tag and bend it slightly inwards. Rosin flux is a compound that helps clean the wires and allows the solder to stick to them. The shrink tubing has hotmelt glue on the inside and once you apply heat to the center solder band the solder melts the wires are held firmly in place the glue melts then the shrink tubing draws down on the wire.

Meets The EU RoHS Directive 201165EU Claim. Put a bead-sized amount of rosin flux on your finger and rub it over the exposed wires. Clean about 01 inches of insulation and carefully tin it.
