If you are looking to start out in the plumbing business you will need to know more about the tools that you are going to need in your trade, like the bernzomatic gas soldering iron. There are a number of different types of soldering irons out there, and you will find that gas solder irons are just one such type. If you really want to know your way around your industry you will need to know how to use just about all of them. This will be if just in case you run out of gas, you will not be able to use your bernzomatic gas soldering iron.
If this happens you will need to know that there is a cordless, gas-less and electricity-less alternative to your problems. You will find that this cold heat is a mini alternative that is also offered to you by the very well known brand Weller. This is the ultimate in cordless soldering and it does not use heat. This means that it is perfect to use on those plumbing copper pipes.
Weller Soldering Iron
If you like using electricity while you solder then you may want to think of going with the hot air alternative. It works the same as a blow touch, or the bernzomatic gas soldering iron, but you will find that the air tool does not give off any type of flame. You will also find that you are able to control the air flow from the nozzle and make it very light or very hard and you can also control the spread of air to very wide or pointed.
This is a noisier alternative to the traditional type of the cordless electricity-less Cold Heat solder irons. The gas alternative is a much safer bet and it work much faster than any of the other soldering irons that do not make use of electricity out there. Yes, it is a bit noisier than the air and much noisier than the traditional but it has the power of getting the job done quickly.
All you need to do is light the flame and start working. You do not need to wait for it to heat up but you may want to make use of a mask. You will find that welding is also known as gas soldering, so you may want to make take the safety steps that you would take if you were welding.
Now, we all know that it is only oxy acetyline welding that can lead to what is called arc eyes, but you will still want to make sure that you have some type of darken eye protection, because the light of the bright flame is still not all that good for your eyes.
The nice thing about the gas type of soldering like the bernzomatic gas soldering iron, is that you will be able to find it in the mini size, so that you can take care of those smaller types of jobs that are in hard to reach places.
