Last april,I have seen same behavior on a pot using SACX. Phenomena happened just few days after start up of a brand new solder wave. I know they have got the pot replaced but I do not know what about the new pot if had same problem. I know they mad

0.2% lead will make your solder non compliant with RoHS when you move to a completely RoHS compliant BOM. Check with your bar vendor how much it will take to convert a pot containing 0.2% lead to

SN100C is designed not to corrode your pot, and can be used on standard solderpots (after a proper clean out), whereas SACX is still corrosive and if the coating is compromised then could cause problems. Get it in writing from the supplier that the

Hello all, The situation: We recently had 2 brand new solder wave installed, one after the other. On the first one, the "protective coating" on the solder pot started to flake off 1 day after start-up. The tech who did the installation witnessed it a

I have a 5lb roll of .125" flux core 63/37 solder that I want to melt into a solid slug. Can this be done without making a huge mess and lighting something on fire ?

I'm not sure, but may be you can exchange it with someone, who need solder wire like your?

We are thinking of getting a small pcb assembly setup for a small manufacturing co-op here in Los Angeles. Our experience consist of manual soldering of through hole and smt components. A quick search suggests that there are a few turn key opt

Hello all, I was just wondering if solder pot temperature affects the quality or the life of the solder joints? For example we run 100Sn at 275C. If I bump it up to 300C, what is that going to change?

Maybe increased barrel fill? Raising pot temps slightly seems to increase barrel fill at selective solder, something we battle with.

I'd expect pot temperature to affect components and bare board performance before affecting the solder connection
