Re: What did you do to/for your club car today?
I did some quick Internet research on solder and came up with the following information...
Quote:
Mind you, this is for hand solder and motors would likely be put together using machine techniques and possibly 50/50 solder, or even silver solder, so the plasticising might need a higher temp. However, for safety, it would behove us to use the lower figure so my guess is don't go anywhere near 360 F. So your figure of 150-170 F seems good seeing that internally it would be hotter to get the case to that temp. |

IMO, it would be the insulation on the wiring that would go prior to solder.

On the other hand. From Wikipedia....

However the article goes on to say that Quote:
So I'm happy just to stick to Scotty's ballpark figure of 150-170 F on the case and know that the components should be well within the melting points of any of those things. |

I have one of those cheap thermal heat guns. Just for giggles I'll shoot the motor from time to time to get a baseline. Always in the 100-125f range. Of course I use the stock cart drivetrain for up and down a steep hill, and for wife and I trucking down gravel roads for happy hour cruising/visiting friends. |

I believe the epoxy that holds the armature together melts first and then centrifugal forces expand the armature until catastrophic failure occurs.
Ask JOHNNIEB, he conducted this experiment |
