What is the proper normal temperature for a soldering iron?

 

Between 350 degrees - 400 degrees.


The temperature of the soldering iron head is more than 400, but the temperature of the contact point is not very fast if the heat dissipation, the temperature will gradually rise, the soldering iron head and its heating body on the working temperature (300 ℃ -350 ℃), only close to slightly higher than the melting temperature of the solder (220 ℃).


Soldering iron is electronic production and electrical maintenance of the necessary tools, the main purpose is to weld components and wires, according to the mechanical structure can be divided into endothermic soldering iron and external hot soldering iron, according to the function can be divided into no tin soldering iron and suction tin soldering iron, according to the use of different is divided into high-power soldering iron and low-power soldering iron.


What is the general temperature of the soldering iron?
If it is a tin soldering iron, its maximum temperature is more than 300 degrees, because the melting point of tin is 231.9 degrees, so that welding aluminum is not possible, the melting point of aluminum is 660.2 degrees, welding aluminum should be used to make gas welding.


What is the normal temperature of soldering iron?
Soldering iron in welding different things, the temperature is not the same, welding copper and iron, the temperature is not the same, depending on the actual situation.


Generally it is between 350 degrees and 400 degrees, as long as it is higher than the melting point of solder.


The highest temperature is generally at 480 degrees Celsius, but generally set to about 320 to 400 degrees on it, and then higher, if the iron tip is easy to oxidize.


W number size also determines its temperature:

220V

20W 400℃

25W 450℃

30W 500℃

40W 530℃

50W 580℃

60W 600℃

Home appliance repair is generally in the 30W or so, the apprentice 20W can be.
