Review on KESTER SOLDER 32117 24 6040 0027 Diameter by Justin Boisvert

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best material for electronics!

What can I say? This is what you need when soldering printed circuit boards. It's thin enough to maneuver easily and get into tight spaces with ease. And 60/40 has such a nice low melting point that you don't have to fight that higher melting point lead-free crap that makes you burn circuit boards and tin your soldering gun tip, causing it to corrode. Get this stuff and make soldering easy! By the way, try to wear gloves whenever possible. After all, it consists of 40% lead. If you're going to do really difficult things, do it with your bare hands, but if you wash your hands well afterwards, you don't have to worry about lead poisoning. If you have cuts or open wounds, wear or DO NOT use gloves! Stay safe there!

Pros
  • Tools and household goods
Cons
  • Somewhat crumpled
