Soldering terminal question


Recommended Posts

When I get ready to solder my terminals should I crimp them first then do the soldering?

i have a hammer crimper I can just give it a good whack?

the wires I'm planning on doing this with are for big 3

From the videos I have watched guys put a little flux in the lug and on the end of the wire. Insert it into the lug and hammer crimp it. Then they heat it up and drop some solder into it. That is going to be the way I do my new lugs when I swap out my 4 gauge for a run of 1/0 to my new rear battery.

Ok that is what I was thinking cause I didn't think they don't crimp at all 

I already ordered my torch and a vice and I already have a crimper

I used to solider my lugs. Then I bought a $40 hydraulic crimper on ebay and its all I use now. Makes quick work if you have a bunch to do. I use adhesive lined heat shrink too.
