Members,

I have found that magnet wire with green insulation will burn off when tinned.

When I have used a lighter to burn of insulation I find that the wire anneals
and is difficult to solder.

Soldered wire is subject to breakage at the end of the tinning because that is a
concentration of stress point hence the use of strain reliefs or potted
connectors.

For tacking wires locktite makes several products available at electronic
stores.
