Cored Solder Wire is designed for Pb-free processes.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet Industrial Newsroom) — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 07:37:21 -0500

No-clean SR-37 LFM-22S cored solder wire is suited for manufacturers who do not require silver in Pb-free materials. By ensuring that, after soldering, small amount of flux remains on soldering iron tip, this solder material prevents further oxidation from taking place and allows iron to transfer heat to next joint. Result is accelerated wetting, consistent flux content, and tip-saving properties. LFM-22S alloy is based on modified tin/copper formulation.
