. Although gold is a noble metal, the methodology for its application, be it electroplating or immersion plating, gold will still go into a molten tin/lead or tin solder solution

. We are soldering lead free materials between 600 and 700 degrees F and increasing the contact dwell time by about 1 to 1.5 seconds. The new lead free alloys are high in tin content and the tin will dissolve the plating on the solder iron tip and eventually eat through the tip

. Some candidates are described below. Pure Tin. Tin has good wettability/solderability over a large range of substrates, making it an excellent choice for lead finish through tin plating
