How to Use Solder Paste (Soldering with solder paste & heat gun)

Hello Youtube, and people who loves soldering. We've created another soldering video. This time, it is about how to use solder paste for your soldering job. Solder pastes are made of tiny solder balls with flux, and they are basically same as solder wires, but sometimes, use of solder paste makes a soldering job easier and quicker than the soldering irons. When you have a chipset with many legs, or when you have a tight working space, you can use solder paste and save your time and effort. All you need to do is applying hot air to the solder paste. That's it. We will teach you how to solder like a pro with soldering paste. Let's get it started!

I made a portable pencile hot air gun & a video about it on my channel, it sounded like that too when the aquarium pump I used was far away lol but now all you hear is the brushed motor & gear assembly because I had to use a cheaper pump & smaller hose so everything fits in a small travel case . The pump is battery operated anywhere from 1.5v - 5v depending on nozzle size & what your work demands . The pump dose have a 2 speed switch but I think controlling the voltage to the motor is a better method because you can get the airflow just perfect for your needs

If your airblow is too strong
Then those components will fly away from your board
And
You're never gonna find it...

Passed the knowledge Like a legend ..

I can see why this isn't the most popular method. It's much easier to make a mistake without noticing it. With the more traditional method, if you make a mistake, you see it.

Help me out, I don’t have hot air to remove this type of component, can I use a regular iron soldering without temperature control, I’m using weller 23 watts soldering iron. I’m afraid I might burn the new part, any advice? Thanks

P&T IT BROTHER i have a question I am going to be using a hot air station for first time and I am going to solder transistor and resistors to a diy project shall put the air flow to 10 or 35 as you said

Really excellent! Thank you for creating this video!

Is 752 degrees Fahrenheit really safe for the board? The creator mentioned using 400 degrees Celsius. It seems a bit high j

[ahra]

may i know the specifications (brand, size, etc) of the heatgun that you are using? i believe that your demo is under a magnifying glass.

I solder prototypes of big devices in small series sometimes, and my experience is:
1.Hand-soldering small 2 pin elements (resistors, leds, caps) is very time consuming and hard - hot air and solder makes it much faster and easier - they just pop into place.
2. Your method of aplying solder paste looks very inconsistent. I add some proportion of flux to the mix - paste becomes more even, flows more easily etc (talking about hand-aplying the paste).
3. For me, just blowing air doesn't work/seems too dangerous. I preheat the board to 90-100C in case of leaded solder, and hot air to 350C.
4. Lead-free doesnt work for me - I tried preaheating boards to 160C, even then I had trouble controlling the procces.
5. My paste's fumes are very nasty, I put my extractor very close to board and on high volume, thus the whole procces is becomes harder, but I don't inhale the fumes. May be the reason lead-free doesn't work for me.
6. May try bismuth solder paste, seems more apropriate to what you're doing. You wouldn't have to overheat your components.

I have a regular heat gun. If I use it, will it not soften or de-solder the other components next to the one I'm trying to solder??

I just bought soldering station form Amazon, so what’s the correct temp(Celsius) for hot air to remove ics chip and smd transistors? And what’s temp on the soldering iron to solder them(ics chip and smd transistors) back to the board? Thanks

Hello Sir, what is full name of this paste for soldering

[fluffypinkpandas]

This.... is what I SHOULD be using when soldering diodes and LEDs. Because dear god.
The old method leaves alot of room to fuck it up.

Can you use soldering Paste on a Graphicscard? Im asking because I think it could just melt because of the low melt point
From the hot gpu while gaming.
And I never seen anybody use it or talking about it, who‘s working on Graphicscards.

[gracebyseven]

Great video, did you you use flux before applying the paste? Thanks.

[bebelscomet]

So if you add the paste there’s no need to solder?

[jaeyongoh]

Do we not need to apply flux before putting paste?

[danielsoeiro]

Hello. What type of solder paste you use more? Brand and type. Thanks

[smamas]

Cool this is better than a solder wire, where can i find this ?

[lepidoptera]

Soldering SMDs with solder paste without a properly adjusted reflow oven is an expensive idiocy that no amateur should ever get into. Just use a very thin solder, a fine tip and plenty of flux and your SMDs will be perfectly happy.
