2.54 micrometers or 100 micro-inches (.00001”) and from all components which will be hand soldered, regardless of gold thickness. The double tinning process is for tinning the components prior to soldering them, and the need is to dip those components in the solder pot twice to remove the gold plating

. 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
