Nathan Trotter announces that it was awarded a 2018 Global Technology Award in the category of Solder Bar for its SAC 305 Solder Bar. The award was presented to the company during a Tuesday, Oct. 16, 2018 ceremony that took place during SMTA International.
Nathan Trotter’s standard lead-free alloys include 99C, SAC0307, and SAC305. Legacy solder alloys include Sn63 (63 Sn/37 Pb eutectic), Sn60 (60 Sn/40 Pb), and Sn50 (50 Sn/50 Pb). A catalog of other solder alloys are produced to either customer or industry specifications.
Each lot of solder is carefully treated to remove impurities and oxide. It is then twice-extruded for optimal grain structure and consistency throughout each bar. Nathan Trotter’s solder is produced using only the highest quality metals, responsibly sourced through the company’s global network of supply. The result is a solder that provides optimal yields, minimal oxidation and superior performance. Demonstrated success has been proven in every application including Through-Hole Technology (THT) wave soldering, dip coating and plating. Nathan Trotter has proudly been in the solder business since 1789.
