Hi, I purchase a leadfree aven solder pot 300w. We are wanting to pre tin power and ground wires prior to soldering onto pcb. I have some anti-erosion flux cored wire solder from koki S03x7Ca-70m 1.6mm. Can this solder be used? If not what is t

I have never added anything but bar solder to a solder pot so I have no experience with adding flux cored wire, but I have to imagine that it would smoke like crazy and gum up the sides of your crucible before you ever touched a wire to it. We use

is there a particular solder bar that I need look into? this is new to me so I have no idea where to start looking.

If you add any "flux cored" wire solder to the pot make sure you have ventilation as the flux will burn off and smoke like crazy. This solder pot is like any used in a wave or selective solder, no flux. The flux is added to wire prior to di

Hi, 1. do not use flux-cored wire- the smell is bad and flux will evaporate anyway at the time of solder wire melting. 2. as suggested use solder bars, something like this: https://smtnet.com/company/index.cfm?fuseaction=view_company&company_id=39635

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
