Don't forget to buy the "Lead free heelstraps, smocks, wriststraps, hairnets and repair table" too. They cost twice as much, but you have to have them! We use regular wick and it works well with the LF solder. Vendor even ageed there was no need t

The copper based part is it copper that you are soldering to or did you tell us what the base material was for the lead. Generally all leads are plated with something such as Tin/Lead, palladium over nickel, tin, etc... You cannot solder to bare co

HI, just my 0,00001 cents Which preheat system does your wave solder has? for instance ? - IR ? - Bottom only ? - IR + Forced Air ? (bottom) - IR + Forced Air (bottom) IR top ? PCB thickness ? Appropriate preheat is important when looking to f

Chunks, We have custom nozzles here in Riyadh that are designed to solder through-hole with SMT 0805 R's and C's just 0.5mm away. ERSA charged an arm and a leg for these, so I buy them from my toolmaker, Asadulah , for half the price. They come in
