Soldering Techniques - Continued
b.
Soldering With A Torch. In some situations soldering can not be accomplished using a soldering iron. Either
the size of the work or the angle of the solder joint will not permit the use of a soldering iron, therefore a torch must be
used. An example of this method, the soldering of the bellows assembly for the M118 series Elbow Telescope is
described below.
(1)
Before soldering, preclean all areas of the bellows assembly, to be soldered, as described in paragraph
a above.
(2)
Secure shouldered shaft (1, fig. 4-26) in a vice or other suitable holding device in such a manner that will
allow easy access to all sides of the shaft during the soldering operations.
