Only at our selective solder process.

SN100C is being used by 95% of our customers over the SAC305. The main reasons are Cost big savings easily $10.00 lb, nice shiny solder joints good for quality inspection. Very few people are using SN100C in SMT Due to increased temperature requireme

Actually we were looking into it for our selective solder process only. We are pretty happy with the results of 305 at smt.

We are using SN100C in both our wave and selective machines and have very good results. We also using it for ROHS hand soldering. It flows better than SAC305, the joints are shinny just like Sn63/37. We are looking into using SN100C as our paste b

We started with SN100C from the very beginning when we purchased our selective solder machine. It has been working well for us. I can't speak to what happens when changing over to it, but I've heard of many companies using SN100C for selective sold

Hello, tried searching the SMTnet archives, but not yet a clear answer - maybe there is not a one yet ? ;) last discussion I found is few years old so maybe there is a fresh view on that? Q: we want to prove that our proces is "clean" we use SAC30

I will try with temperature 255 C degrees. The wetting force vs. solder temperature for SAC305 is more than 265 C degrees (the temperature of trials). Thanks for the advise. Regards

Yes, we are looking at using it for our solder paste. The customer mentioned wants us to test our boards and initially we've heard the SAC105 is better for "higher mechanical stressed" assemblies. Thanks for your reply!!

Hi, does anyone have any experience with common wave soldering defects using SAC305 alloy?.....i am finding a lot of what seem to be shrinkage cracks on the bottom side surface of the soldered components.....there is also a lot of directional cooling

Hello AJ, The previous answers are correct; Sn has seen a spike in price ever since RoHs was implemented. Furthermore, the other alloys that have been used to replace Pb (because of RoHs) have also seen an increase in price. Sadly these material rep
