    The heating element wire has a high chromium contend and the
    chromium oxide will not dissolve in the fluxes you are using. It may
    be possible to solder it with "black" flux but it will still be
    difficult . You can get black flux from a welding supply it is used
    on stainless steel and other difficult to solder metals.
