Tresse à dessouder […] : Comme son nom l'indique, la tresse est constituée de plusieurs fils de cuivre, tressés entre eux. On la retrouve en différentes largeurs. Lors de son utilisation, on la pose sur la soudure que l'on veut retirer puis on dépose la panne du fer par-dessus celle-ci afin de faire fondre la soudure. L'étain fondu sera «aspiré» par capillarité dans la tresse. La section ayant absorbé l'étain devra être coupée puisqu'elle ne peut être utilisée qu'une seule fois. 3, record 1, French, - tresse%20%C3%A0%20dessouder

Apply PlastiSpan HD insulation board to the exterior perimeter of a foundation or footing which will be subsequently buried in backfill. Prior to application of the insulation, the below grade portions of the wall should be dampproofed or waterproofed as required. PlastiSpan insulation board can then be applied using adhesive or loose laid and held in position during the backfill process.
