What Is Resistance Soldering?

Resistance Soldering is a unique soldering process which utilizes special equipment that has been developed to provide the heat necessary to activate flux and flow solder in a safe and efficient manner with the use of resistance heat.

Thermal energy is produced by the conduction of an electrical current through a resistive material to create the resistance heat that is required. The amount of heat that is produced can be regulated by controlling the amount and type of electrical current that is being conducted along with the amount of resistance that is being encountered.

The equipment intended for this type of resistance heating is capable of producing high enough temperatures to melt and flow most solder alloys ranging from low temperature (soft) to higher temperature (hard) solders. This range also includes lead free and silver solders as well as certain types of brazing materials. Resistance heat offers a safe and efficient method of soldering and brazing that may improve the overall quality and repeatability of your soldering process while decreasing the probability of inconsistent solder joints and potential thermal damage to heat sensitive components.

Conformable coax cable

Conformable coax cable with direct-solder connectors offers a highly reliable, low-loss RF solution for applications requiring precise routing and secure terminations. The hand-formable outer conductor allows the cable to hold custom shapes without special tools, while direct-solder connectors provide a robust, permanent connection with excellent impedance control. Ideal for compact assemblies, prototyping, antennas, and aerospace or defence systems, this combination delivers consistent performance, strong shielding, and easy installation in tight spaces—making it a preferred choice for high-frequency, high-reliability designs.
