🔌 MG Chemicals - 4884-227G 63/37 Rosin Core Leaded Solder, 0.025-inch Diameter, 1/2 lbs Spool Review

Yes, it is a roll of rosin core solder, good for electronics, although the price is about 1/3 or less than the local price. So if you need cheap solder this is a good option - flux Works great no filming or blistering issues - heat transfer is good and melts at a lower temp than lead free solder - would recommend.

Eutectic solder works as advertised without that horrible phase of plasticity that you get with a 60/40 mix. Rosin cores are plentiful and help keep the ends clean and dry (and smell great! But it's neither here nor there, maybe I shouldn't enjoy vaping as much as I do haha). Definitely recommend this to anyone working with electronics or looking for eutectic solder. Good price for a half pound bun that I will buy again if I'm ever done.

As an electrical engineering student, I use quite a lot of solder. This material is the best I've ever used. Unlike 60/40 solder, 63/37 does not have a very wide range of ductile temperatures, so it hardens quickly after the iron is removed. As much as I love the idea of using lead free solder and would recommend it for industrial applications, lead solder is far better to work with at home. Lead-free solder requires higher temperatures which, if left untreated, can damage sensitive components.

This is an all purpose solder. The flux is effective, but only 2.2% doesn't leave a big mess. The diameter is stiff enough to be easy to use but thin enough to provide good control for all but the smallest SMDs. The alloy is eutectic lead/tin, the best choice available if you can use lead solder (which you really want to do). I have several different solders available, almost all lead. This is one of the best among them all, along with Kester and Alpha.
