Nowadays, the human is surrounded by numerous things from small simple parts to sophisticated cars, ships, gigantic constructions. More sophisticated parts are composed of simple parts and there are various joining technologies of materials used either by way of dismountable or mountable joints. One of the possibilities of joining various parts together is soldering. High-quality joint is possible to ensure by carrying out quality control. This article is focused on the issue of carrying out quality control in soldering. The introductory part of the article describes the basic problems of the area of solder connections with consequent characteristic of non-destructive quality control - visual inspection. The second part of the article is focused on description of the Burst test of high-pressure oil cooler that was carried out in the practice. The final part of the article provides global evaluation of this test.
