When this says, "Heat Resistant" how much heat can it handle before causing a burn ? Im looking for a glove too use when soldering

I use it to hold my hair to my curling iron. It can withstand 375 F for about 30 seconds. I wouldn't use it to solder.

I use a 100/160watt Weller soldering gun for electronic soldering jobs. It handles everything I've soldered, up to 14 guage wire easily.This gun is 200Watts. I suspect it would be like trying to use a blow torch. You might try something in the 30 to 75 watt range. Called both soldering pencils or soldering irons.If you can swing the extra cost, look for a 'soldering station', better models have an adjustable heat range. You can set to heat to exactly the temp you need.

Meh. I found the optimum temperature to cure this - in a reasonable time - very warm. The kind of very warm where you can still keep your fingers on it without too much discomfort. If it's too hot to keep your finger on for more than 3 seconds, your gonna melt the surrounding material. If you can control the heat gun to maintain that level of heat over a 15 to 20 minute period, then you're good. Patience is the key. The heat transfer tool?? A joke. You'd be there for a good 2 hours with it.

I suggest going to your home improvement store , and buying welders gloves ,they tolerate way more heat than , and are designed for man hands way cheaper , hope this help some

I'm sorry but I really don't know. I've only used it on really thin resist that didn't need much heat. I do plug it into my reastat so I can control the temp if that is any help.

You can on low heat settings and don't leave it on there. Otherwise you'll melt it.

Hi there My unit came with a full one year warranty. One of my electrodes broke off at the base, and they replaced it for free, although warranty said electrodes are non-replacable under warranty. This unit is a high frequency (110-400 Hz) and low amperage (100-200mA), so no worries about getting burned. Hope this answers your question.

Wattage does not reflect temperature. A low wattage iron can have a very high temperature. That being said... the temperature range is 365F - 895F and should work fine for any general soldering task.

I can not give an exact temperature but it will burn your fingers through the glove that comes with it. It doesn't have a heat setting. Use with caution and never leave it unattended.

You can set and store 5 tempurature settings in memory it's tempurature range is 120 degrees F to 899 degrees F. The ceramic heater in the soldering iron is 65 watts. You will have no trouble using any soldering alloy you wish.

It depends. The glove can withstand extreme heat but only for a short period of time before it absorbs the heat. I only recommend it only to take something out of the oven to place it on the counter, and not to hold hold while cooking.

Don't actually know how hot it gets, but my husband used it to solder wiring. Hope this helps.

Heat protection will be necessary if you plan on using these gloves for anything that would take over a minute. I used them on an art project using a hair dryer to melt crayons inside glass ornaments and they could not withstand THAT heat for more than a minute or so until becoming too hot to wear. I was very disappointed!

I haven't used my soldering iron this year though from what I remember it was within 5 min. I was soldering solar cells and the variable temp was important. I'm happy with it.Michael SedonaCreations.com

This is an Electronics Soldering Iron, and is not for the use that you want. I would suggest a very strong Epoxy.

I've dropped melted solder on it and there were no problems. I'd think if you touched the hot soldering iron to it briefly there might be a little burn or melted spot.
