One thing i do different when soldering 2"+ L copper pipe is i focus the heat first on the Pipe going into the fitting. That way the pipe is already hot and expanded in the fitting. Then i focus the heat on the cup of the fitting. Nice work!

[@Got2Learn]

Yeah I do that too but only when I am soldering a lead-free valve for example because it doesn't transfer heat as well to the pipe ;) But yeah, heating the pipe a little can only help, thanks LorenzKamo!

[@LorenzKamo]

@@Got2Learn Great content as always

[@Got2Learn]

thanks!!!!!!!!!!

[@phiksit]

Yep, that's the way I was taught to silver braze copper nickel pipe and fittings. Heat up the pipe, then the fitting.

[@chadlevitan7886]

Yep, when you get into bigger stuff, preheat and heat control is super important. On stuff bigger than 1", I use bigger torch tips to increase the BTU output/flame size, moving into a triple tip with propane/MAPP on 2" and bigger. Oxy/Acetylene is ok too, but I find that the lower temp of the MAPP or propane flame gives cleaner results in my experience. Another thing I haven't heard mentioned - you can use the "rainbow" color transition as an indicator that the joint was properly heated. Just a touch of rainbow evenly distributed? Perfect. Too much rainbow = too much heat. No rainbow = cold joint. Source: I have soldered 1000's of joints in large radiant hydronic systems.

I stumbled upon your video looking for ways to direct water away from a newly built shed and landscaped as it is raining like heck with ground recently frozen up here in western maine and pooling in low spots. I keep clicking non-stop on your video's as they are all awesome. I originally thought I was "the man" but, after seeing your video's I am not as skilled as I thought I was. You sir are "the man". I will just keep on clicking and learning. I love to learn and keep educating myself on how-to home repairs and such. I like to do everything myself and never hire out. Everything comes out really great, good enough or eh. And if I get a nod from wife even the "eh" is great cause she believes I am a hero. And, well that's what it is all about...and money savings too, can't overlook that. And it makes me feel good.

[@mattsmith9348]

I remember my father long ago telling me to concentrate the flame where you want the solder to travel to. I've soldered 4" copper lines with oxy/acetylene with great success. An occasional 6" line, but they can be a bear to keep the entire joint hot enough. All piping was for potable water in a beverage manufacturing plant. Beautiful job. Just one thing I always kept in mind. Once you clean the joint don't touch it, especially with your your fingers. Dirt and oil from your hands will ruin your day.

[@Got2Learn]

Yes, good tip, don't touch with your fingers or you might create a spot where the solder won't go! Thanks Matt!

[@mattsmith9348]

Proper joint integrity was EXtremely important where I worked. The plant was located in an awkward location in the municipal water system. Normal supply was 150psi, but Often got surges/hammers and the result was up to 215psi. That pressure was great when you had to fill 20,000 gallon tanks quickly, but also was a concern in other area's of the plant. That led to various plant wide regulators, surge arrestors, expansion loops whatever the situation required. Was an interesting job.

[@joshcowart2446]

You need one of those multiple tip torches. I’ve never used one personally. The biggest pipe I’ve soldered was 4” and acetylene with a 1/2” tip worked fine but I’ve seen those torches with multiple tips and was always curious how much they helped. I’m sure they wouldn’t be worth it unless you solder 3” plus regularly.

[@rastapastrychief]

Even more wild when you see it used in old sprinkler systems, buried beneath the ground.

[@beerborn]

You solder starting from the bottom then upward. I do the opposite way by starting my solder from the top going downwards. The reason, Gravity. Solder will drip downwards and if you start from the top, solder will not pile up the way it does when you start from the bottom because in the end, they will accumulate at the bottom of the pipe. But this only applies to a horizontal pipe and not a vertical pipe. 4:53

[@Mrbrettradford]

Doesn’t matter where you start really. gravity doesn’t really matter because the solder goes into the joint with capillary action. Starting at the bottom of the fitting is how I do it too because heat rises and the top half of the fitting heats up while you solder the bottom. It’s faster. To each their own. Good points Made by all ! Great to hear others opinion.

[@Got2Learn]

I love hearing how other people solder their joints.

[@beerborn]

WRONG ! Doesn't matter were you start. Solder will always flow towards were the heat source is located.

Hmm, I just soldered a half dozen 1 1/4” joints and I now see I wasted a lot of time. I was doing it the same as 1/2” 3/4” by heating one side and just wait until the whole joint is hot enough to melt and draw the solder over. I used 2 small torches, and I really only added solder to the top 1/2 of the pipe. Yet I used lots and there was a decent amount that dripped by the time I was done. I might have to get a MAP gas tank and torch. Do they really need a specific torch? Wish I would’ve watched this first, damn.

@inodoroguerrero First off, let me say thanks for getting back to me so fast! I never used a porta band to cut pipes. I am in Ohio and run into split pipes from cold weather. Boiler baseboard pipes are really soft. The 360 clamp on cutter crushes them. I use my Ridgid with the know and just go slow, but some of them I have to cut back further than I'd like and now you need double couplers, etc. On the Port-aband what size blade should I use? The finer would be better, right? Will it leave my cut straight?

I didn’t come here to learn, I have already done my apprenticeship. Just seen this video thumbnail and came for a laugh. Dude, you don’t need to move your torch parallel with your solder as you push it in and fill because all you do is melt it on the surface because it melts off the spool and falls. When the fitting is at the right temp it takes the solder (first year knowledge) second, use the hottest part of the flame to heat the fitting AND the pipe so they expand equally But focus more on the fitting. You are using the flame envelope to heat the fitting which takes way longer and you oxidize the fitting hence the discolorization. Based on the fitting color, I am sure you brushed it with flux to clean it up before you extensively polished it to cover up an barely average solder joint. Technically it’s filled and should hold, but man, clean up that technique and solder more. Looks like you haven’t soldered a lot of 2”, let alone 3” and up

Great video! Where are you from? I noticed that you take your pronunciation of words very seriously. Russia?

I followed your instructions to a T but after the fifth time of opening it up to inspect my work the customer fired me
