You mean if I bought that material in USA or Europe It will be expensive. If you buy those material in places where labor is cheap then you get cheap prices with same capability. You are really missing something....

The lead free debates are getting more and more interesting Didn't know that low labor cost was also lowering melting temps of LF alloys

mostly we buy our solder paste in countries with high labor cost thus making it expensive. Check out China. Won't you believe they sell LF paste at a fraction of a cost of a well known brand.

Well known American,Japanese and European brand cost between US$75 TO US$150 PER KILO. China made cost at US$50 to US$75 per kilo.Free shipping and in stock.

Make sure that you use lead paste and solder for this. (See Dave I listened) Russ

Yes, sorry I forget to mention it. SO only some capacitor will be lead-free. The rest remain 'Pb' parts. The solder paste also remain 'Pb'. You mean that if only this capacitor will change, we can solder that with no problem ? thanks ! habba

Habba, I don't know why use lead free capacitors and a non LF components. I do not get the idea? Can you educate me? Is this customer driven or just your company. You must use leaded solder paste for this type of process. Arman

Thats why they hire process engineers at solder companies. We might as well benefit from em.
