Hello everyone,
This is my first time on the forum so be gentle with me.
I wish to solder to a firewall hermetic connector with #24/20
solderwells that are plated with 5 microns of Gold over
both Alumel & Chromel using a 5s HMP solder, cored with
2% "No Clean" flux.
The environment they will be used in will typically see
temperatures in the region of -55 to +270 Deg C.
My questions are:
1. Is the process feasible?
2. Will non-removal of the Gold prior to soldering cause
embrittlement?
Regards,
Pat Diamond
