Easy to use and joints look great!

This is the best lead free solder I have ever used. No flow problems or spikes sometimes found with SAC305 and similar alloys.

Pros
  • Classified as ROL0 according to J-STD-004.
Cons
  • No automatic

Slightly overrated in soldering and soldering equipment

Bought after reading on countless forums that Kester solder was the best of the best. I honestly don't know what all the fuss is about. It worked well but wasn't unlike many other brands I've tried so far. This particular solder smokes a lot and I had to heat it up a lot more to get a good flow with my Weller soldering iron. The splash level was relatively low, which is nice. I definitely need to adjust my fume hood when using this solder.

Pros
  • This solder's unique chemistry is also designed to reduce spatter, which is common with most cored wire fluxes.
Cons
  • Not sure

The best lead free solder I have found.

Despite all the hype about silver solder, despite the very low silver content, silver solder does not leave a shine, but a matt finish, even when properly prepared. Silver solder also shrinks and also looks like a cold joint with lead solder. Kester has done his homework with that. As a handyman I'm fine with using leaded solder but would like to get used to lead-free solder as I suspect there will eventually be a need to phase out leaded solder. To be commercially compliant with Rohs, you…

Pros
  • Using Kester 24-9574-7610 No-Clean Flux results in extremely clear solder residue without cleaning.
Cons
  • Short instructions
