You'll want to chop your solder into "bite sized" pieces for your pot, by the way. A bolt cutter or a band saw are a couple of ways to do it without ruining other precision tools. It's up to you for the alloy you use, but there are several (some

I am an equip mfrs rep. I took a customer to my wave solder principal's factory to run their boards on a wave with no-Pb alloy, (Sn96.5 Ag3.0 Cu0.5) in air environment. The results were excellent with pot temp of 263C (505F). Their boards are low to

Jacki, your original post was regards to wave solder bath. With solder bar, there is no flux and you do not need to look for WS Sn100C. Sn100C is only a metal alloy. Regards, Shean

All I can say about Alpha and their GOTT-DAMN website is THEY SUCK!! I refuse to register to view product literature... for that reason, Alpha Metals, you won't be looked at for my pb-free paste or bar solder evals.

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

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

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

Hi George, The simple answer is that if you're company only does business in the US, or South america or Antartica or any where else that you aren't frozen out due to RoHS and the WEEE directives, then going lead free may not make sense. Unless your

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
