Switch to SN100C (no pun intended). I cant help with the SAC 305 issues but we should have a wave with SN100 running very soon. I will let you all know how that goes. Please report back on the x-sectioning and share the results. I have heard some v

Look at: http://thor.inemi.org/webdownload/newsroom/Presentations/09.pdf Page 47 shows both alloys to be similar in reliability although its a little troublesome that the particular defects are not isolated as I feel there is a big difference betwee

Hello Greg, Glad to hear your success with the SACX0307 copy. By the way, does the P mean it contains phosphorus? Does yours also contain bismuth like the SACX0307 (according to their plumbing solder patent for X0307)? In response to your discussion

The temp is not an issue with selective soldering as the SN100C can be used at the same temp we used for tin lead. 260C. Some are using a higher temp, we did not notice any difference in the results with a higher temp. Most people run thier waves a

CMiller, Thanks for the valuable info! We are in the midst of lead-free deployment and need to know good alloy choices at both wave and ERSA. I have heard the same things regarding SAC305's price for bar solder, but don't yet know what the process

We have been seeing continued difficulty with solder shorts and/or insufficient barrel fill with our Juki selective solder machine while using SAC305. We want to switch to something in the SN100 series, but we do not know enough to seperate the hype

We are using selective soldering pallet, which the soldering flux is Interflux 2005M. We encountered the poor hole fill mainly at the heat sink components. Initially we tried to apply more heat but tend to overkill the flux activity. After some modif

Hi Guys I think you should all be looking at the Nousstar lead free machine this machine has been approved with some of the larger oems and has a good base in Europe and the uk we have one and the design is excellent we are using Aim for class 3 prod

Hi Grant, I've seen a couple of good fluxes on lead free - WF-7742 from Indium & JS-EU-01 from Koki. I'm sure everyone else has a good one too - just make sure it is one formulated for the elevated temperatures involved. Cheers, Rob

There is one solder you guy want to consider, that is SCS7 from Asahi. It is Sn Cu & Si, and it is the lowest price at the moment. We had been changing our pot from SAC, then SACX, and recently to SCS7. The result is better than all other solders. I
