Philmore Solder Dispenser Tube, 99.5/.5/CO .7oz, RA300 Lead-free
The Philmore Solder Dispenser Tube, 99.5/.5/CO .7oz, RA300 Lead-free offers a high-quality, lead-free soldering solution for a variety of electronic and electrical applications. This dispenser tube contains a high-purity Tin/Copper/Cobalt alloy combined with an RA300 rosin-activated flux, designed to facilitate clean and reliable solder joints while meeting environmental compliance standards.
The 99.5/.5/CO alloy (Tin/Copper/Cobalt) is a lead-free composition primarily composed of tin and copper, with a trace amount of cobalt. The addition of Cobalt typically serves to refine the grain structure of the solder, enhancing its mechanical properties and overall joint reliability. This alloy offers excellent flow and wetting characteristics, making it suitable for general-purpose soldering. The RA300 Rosin-Activated flux core is specifically designed for lead-free solders, providing aggressive cleaning action to remove oxides from component leads and pads. This promotes superior wetting and ensures robust solder joints. As a rosin-activated flux, it typically leaves behind a residue that may require cleaning after soldering for cosmetic reasons or to prevent potential issues in sensitive circuits.
Conveniently packaged in a dispenser tube, this solder allows for precise and controlled feeding, minimizing waste and simplifying detailed soldering tasks. With 0.7 ounces of solder, this tube is a practical and portable option, suitable for both professional technicians and hobbyists for workbench use or field repairs.
