I'd say it depends on the whole process you have. With our 5 zone oven, I could never get a profile that worked as well as SAC305, so we switched back.

kkay: I'm not real clear on where in the assembly process flow that you are considering replacing SAC305 with SN100. Please clarify

Only at our selective solder process.

Hi, does anyone have any experience with common wave soldering defects using SAC305 alloy?.....i am finding a lot of what seem to be shrinkage cracks on the bottom side surface of the soldered components.....there is also a lot of directional cooling

SN100C is being used by 95% of our customers over the SAC305. The main reasons are Cost big savings easily $10.00 lb, nice shiny solder joints good for quality inspection. Very few people are using SN100C in SMT Due to increased temperature requireme

Actually we were looking into it for our selective solder process only. We are pretty happy with the results of 305 at smt.

I've seen many comments in many threads about the positive attributes of SN100C (apparently mostly by salesmen). However, I have a concern for the higher temps that will be encountered when using SN100C (or Sn/Cu) vs. SAC305 (vs. 63/37), specifica

Does anyone have Data/Comparisons showing which component plating is better, Nickle plating vs. Sucoplate for SMT production? These components would be reflowed with a SAC305 alloy

We are using SN100C in both our wave and selective machines and have very good results. We also using it for ROHS hand soldering. It flows better than SAC305, the joints are shinny just like Sn63/37. We are looking into using SN100C as our paste b

I will try with temperature 255 C degrees. The wetting force vs. solder temperature for SAC305 is more than 265 C degrees (the temperature of trials). Thanks for the advise. Regards
