AI Customer ServiceSoldering is a more traditional method that involves using a soldering iron or gun to melt down solder (metal alloy) to join a copper lug to a battery cable. Once the solder cools, it forms a hard and independent connection that allows electrical conductivity between the two components.
Above all, the fumes produced while soldering can be hazardous, especially when using non-RoHS solder. Crimping is a mechanical method of joining battery cables to lugs; no heat or chemical is required.
X3 No solder, More corrision and the cables will be brittle next to the connecton and break from vibration, Solder is a no no on over the road trucks as well as air planes. I crimp only, for reasons I mentioned in another thread about wiring. But we also have the correct crimping tool that looks like large bolt cutters .
Soldering involves melting a metal alloy (solder) to create a bond between the cable and the tinned copper lugs. While it requires more skill and time, soldering offers some unique advantages: Strength and Durability: Soldered connections tend to be more robust and durable over time, particularly in environments with vibrations or movement.
Therefore, we can conclude that battery cable lugs should be crimped and not soldered. Crimping offers a better and more secure connection between the copper lug and a battery cable. Should You Add Solder to a Crimp Joint?
Soldering expands and anneals a crimped copper lug..... not good. A bad solder joint is worse than a mediocre crimp joint. When solder flows out into the wire (VERY hard to avoid) it causes a stress point at the end of the solder flow. Any vibration will cause the wire to be fatigue prone at that point.
