Welding It has already been discussed as a connection between the various elements through fittings, couplings and overlapping. However, there is a need to carry out welding in prohibited situations. It is a simple operation, but requires extreme care so that it does not check rotations in the future.
Zinc and copper welding is different from other metals because there is no fusion of the material. The procedure is to add an alloy, create lead and tin. Welding is carried out using a bar about 30 cm long. The quality of the soldering depends on the penetration of the lead/gold alloy between the elements to be alloyed. As the contact areas must be cleaned and stripped with muriatic acid, in order to remove dirt and oxidation. By heating the tin-lead bar, it reaches its melting point, which is lower than that of the alloying metal, becomes moist and allows it to penetrate between pieces as alloying.
At the end, make an external weld bead, in order to seal the weld. This type of solder has the advantage of not weakening zinc and copper, as the metal is not molten, remaining as the main characteristics.
