Troubleshooting

Joint is leaking after soldering

Reheat the joint completely and apply more solder. Ensure the pipe and fitting were thoroughly cleaned and fluxed before heating. Check for cracks in the fitting.

Solder not flowing into the joint

Ensure the joint is heated sufficiently and evenly. Reapply flux. Verify the pipe and fitting are the correct size and free of oxidation. Avoid disturbing the joint while solder is molten.

Fitting does not fit onto the pipe

Confirm that both the pipe and fitting are the correct 35mm diameter and that no damage or deformation has occurred to either component.
