Review on 🔧 Solder Wire Sn60 Pb40 YIMIA Tin Lead Alloy Flux Rosin Core: Ideal for Electrical Repair, Soldering, Electronic PCB Welding & DIY Work (0.8mm, 100g) by Jeremy Watkins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Long live lead solder!

Pros:✔️ Works about the same as MG Chemicals 60/40/2% RA solder but half the price✔️ Melts at lower temperatures than lead-free solder ➡ Longer iron tip life and easier processing✔️ The 2% rosin core is good enough for soldering clean surfaces without the need for external flux✔️ The 0.8mm diameter is great for SMT work. Cons: ❌ Although significantly cheaper than Kester and co, it's still quite expensive for an unknown brand ❌ The RA core leaves significant residue that you may need to scrape off

Pros
  • WIDE APPLICATION: Rosin core solder is designed for household work, DIY, electrical repairs such as repairing radio, TV, VCR, stereo, cable, motor, circuit board and other electronic devices.
Cons
