soldering Gaugemaster solder pads

[john.pickles87]

Hi Bob,

Any fine tiped / low watt iron'll do on a Seep, check you use the right tabs, not the accsesory ones and you could do with using a CDU as well

Be in touch.

BoB,

I forgot to add,,,hope you have a small watt,,soldering iron,pencil tip or small chisel tip,,about,25to40 watt,would be fine,stay away from a big soldering gun if you can help it,,,way too big for the pads..

Cheers,

Frank

BOB,

I recommend, 60/40,Rosin Core solder,it's about 1/16 diameter,,either,Oatey,Kester,,Radio Shack used to have Oatey..I'm guessing,the pads are already tinned,if not,I would recommend that you tin them and tin the wire,that you will solder to it..

Cheers,

Frank

I am using Gaugemaster PM1 point motors to operate my 3 Peco 3 way insulfrog turnouts. Can anyone give me some suggestions on how to solder to the PM1 solder pads?
