Kris, this practice has gone on for years. I have never heard of any problems associated with this. I have heard "grumblings" about tin lead parts being processed with lead free paste, but have seen or heard of no data to support. Russ

NO-LEAD COMPONENTS WITH LEAD SOLDER ISSUE: We agree with Russ. We've dicussed this several times on SMTnet. For instance, look here http://www.smtnet.com/forums/Index.cfm?CFApp=1&Message_ID=25394 LEAD COMPONENTS WITH NO-LEAD SOLDER ISSUE: We disa

My policy is not to mix them. You have zero cross contamination potiental with this policy.

Hey folks, I was interested in any information that you might have on tombstone reduction when using a lead free solder and profile. Thanks for any input that you may have! -Russ #x

proper pad geometries, accurate placement, and good reflow profile. Are you having problems right now?

with lead-free solders, one would expect to find less instances of tombstoning. this is because SAC alloys are not eutectic and melt over a range of temp (usually 217-220 deg C) instead of at a single temperature. therefore the forces due to solder s

I don't think that you would need to test these. Have you ever seen any evidence of solder sticking to them? We use the same material and never notice anything besides flux staying on the bottom. Would the lead absorption if any even be of a concer

Hi everybody, We have wave solder fixtures made of Durapol and multiple wave solder machines. Most likely we�ll use the same pallets for either tin-lead or lead-free solder for a while (of course after washing the pallets). Should we test the palle
