Managing the temperature of the soldering iron tip is crucial to ensuring optimum results. With an electric soldering iron equipped with a temperature controller, it's essential to set the ideal temperature for the lead-free solder wire you're using. Before you start, measure the temperature of the iron tip with a thermometer.
Use genuine soldering iron tips compatible with the manufacturer to avoid performance problems. Counterfeit tips may have differences in thickness or fit, which can impair soldering iron operation or lead to breakdowns.
When soldering with lead-free wires, a peak temperature of between 350 and 370°C is generally recommended. This setting preserves the thermal resistance of components and ensures safe soldering. Choosing the right soldering iron tip is just as important: a well-selected tip can reduce the temperature required and improve work efficiency.
Regular maintenance of the tip is essential to prolong its life. After each use, allow the tip to cool before removing the tip or sleeve. A poorly maintained tip can affect the quality of the weld.
When using adhesives for soldering or desoldering, strictly follow the manufacturer's warnings and recommendations.
