An alternative to the most popular solder wire (Sn60Pb40) with flux, for professional use.

  • Contains Pb
  • High activity
  • Organic
  • Contains halides

Alloy designation in accordance with ISO 9453:2014: Sn63Pb37E*
Other known alloy markings: S-Sn63Pb37E*
Product type: Cored solder wire (with flux)
Flux: SW21

1. General characteristics

The product is intended for professional use. The solder Sn63Pb37E* was produced in the first smelt of tin and lead. The composition of the solder complies with the ISO 9453:2014 standard. SW21 is organic, water-soluble based, halide activated flux. The solder is soldering most metals except aluminum and stainless steel. It is basic leaded alloy for manual, automatic and robotic processes used in industrial applications in electronics and electrical engineering, where meeting the requirements of the RoHS2 Directive is not required.
* higher cleanliness class.
