    b. Tinning with Soldering Iron. In the field, wires
    smallerthan size No. 10 maybe tinned with a soldering 20-16 65Watts
    iron and rosincore solderas follows: l4andl2 100 Watts

    (1) Select a soldering iron having suitable heat lOand8 200 Watts
    capacity for wire size. Make sure that iron is cleanand
    well tinned. a. Solderingirons are available in wattage ranges
    from 20 to 500 watts. Irons with wattage ratings of 60,
    (2) Tin conductorfor about halfthe exposed length, 100, 200 watts are recommended for general use in
    refer to figure 4-4. This is enough to take advantage of helicopter electrical wiring. Pencil ironswith a rating of
    closed part of solder cup. Tinningor solder on wire above 20 to 60 watts are recommended for soldering small
    cup causes wire to be stiff at point where flexing takes parts. The soldering iron recommended for printed
    place. Thiswill result in wire breakage. Refer to figure 4-5 circuitsoldering is alightweight 55 wattironwith a600°F

    three-wire cord to eliminate leakage currents which
    coulddamageprinted circuits.

    Do not select a small pencil iron where a high steady
    heat flow is required.
    8. SOLDERING TIP SELECTION. Select the tip best
    suited for size and shape of workto be soldered. Some
    common tip shapesare shown in figure 4-6. Solderingiron
    E/SPM-4-4 tips are available in sizes from 1/16 inch to 2 inches in
    diameter. For general use, a tip of 1/4 inch to 3/8 inch

    a long shanktip of 1/16, 1/8, 3/32 or 3/16 inch diameter.
    Screwdriver, chisel, and pyramid shapes are
    recommended.
