If you all would use Rosin flux the damages would stop due to over heating.
rosin stop the oxidation from happening. with coax at $ 1 foot and
coneectors At $2 plus each that get expensive so That why I went back to
using flux prevents this happening.

The secret seems to be : putting sufficient flux on the braid and
connector so the heat is distributed quickly and well.
Too much heat is worse than too little, as it is destructive and noted
by K4JRB.
