Sorry Bob Could not respond been away busy. Just to correct you, we did not copy the SACX as we brought ours to market at least six months before so how could we copy, it is also a little different, but nicely reassuring when the 'big boys' do some

Hello Amol, I continue to be amazed at the surprise engineers have on discovering that a non-eutectic alloy such as SAC305 displays micro-cracking and rough joints in a soldering process. There was a reason the electronics industry chose to use eutec

Hi Zaza Thanks. Again, very appreciate if you advise me where I can get the SN100C solder bar that is water soluable. Now I'm checking Nihon Superior(Singapore) whether they have or not. As our customer's preference, we have to use the watersoluab

Proy, Another issue is what exact formulation of SAC is used. Much of the SAC305 being used in Asia contains phosphorus, which is added in an attempt to reduce the heavy drossing that SAC305 produces. Phosphorus acts as a flux on steel so will increa

Kester offers Tin-Copper AND Tin-Copper-Nickel. The Kester K100 alloy is a Tin-Copper-Nickel material that is very similar to SN100C. Straight Tin-Copper isn't tremendously popular but can be used in low-cost, consumer-electronics applications wher

I still have half of a 500 g jar of this paste left. I'm going to give it another shot, but my first experience was not so wonderful. Everything was great until we reflowed it. Our profile matched AIM's recommendation, as far as I can see. The ch

Hello Joseph, Sorry for the bad news but microcracking is a well known potential condition occuring with the SAC305 alloy. Microcracking is a condition being seen with many joints soldered with the SAC305 alloy. It is technically a shrinkage cavity

Downhole solder suggestions, in order of preference are: * Kester Sn96.3Ag3.7. Most vendors do not stock straight tin-silver alloys, whose wallet is that fat? * SAC305 can usually be used in place of one of the copper-free tin-silver alloys in downho

Hi All, we are running a process where we are wave soldering the PTH components using SAC305 alloy. During rework process (using SAC alloy in the solder pot) we are seeing good amount of Cu dissolution, to an extent that the Cu has completely disapp

Hi Steve, Although your opinion is valid, calling something from a respected Japanese manufacturer crap is a little harsh. I have seen many people solder very well with all sorts of leadfree alloys - not producing crap. I've already had a play wit
