[QUOTE="gsteigwiler, post: 615745, member: 284698"] Hi MHKU Info taken from a wiki on solder, hope it helps The two most common alloys are 60/40 Sn/Pb which melts at 370 °F or 188 °C and 63/37 Sn/Pb used principally in electrical work Most lead-free replacements for conventional Sn60/Pb40 and Sn63/Pb37 solder have melting points from 5–20 °C higher[citation needed], though solders with much lower melting points are available I dont have any tips ( sorry ) or hints as I have never used it, still got plenty of the old stuff Regards gsteigwiler [/QUOTE]
