  • Soldering through-hole connectors can be a tedious task.  Connector Specifier recently highlighted an article by principal engineer, Paul Socha discussing how connected preforms can be used to streamline the soldering process.

    Many through-hole connectors can be hand soldered successfully using solid or flux cored wire.  Others are more difficult for reasons including long pins, thick boards, or difficult-to-reach connections.  Connected (integrated) preforms relieve these issues by supplying custom preforms to match the application.
