The 1.0mm diameter wire comes on a 7.5m reel weighing 50g, which is a handy amount for maintenance jobs and repairs around the workshop or home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe alloy is made from 99.3% tin (Sn) and 0.7% copper (Cu), with a flux content of 2.2% built into the wire. That flux helps the solder flow cleanly and bond well without needing a separate application. The melting point sits at 227°C, so you get a solid joint once it cools and sets. Because it is lead-free, it suits work where you want to avoid lead for safety or compliance reasons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe find this solder works well for restoring free electrical flow to connectors and tidying up worn or broken joints. The result is a conductible, virtually permanent join that holds up over time. Whether you are fixing a loose contact or building something from scratch, the 1.0mm gauge is a good middle ground that handles most general soldering tasks. Keep the reel dry and it will stay ready for the next job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.5m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSoldering\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is this solder made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a lead-free alloy of 99.3% tin (Sn) and 0.7% copper (Cu), with 2.2% flux built into the wire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the melting point?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe melting point is 227°C, so you will need a soldering iron that reaches a suitable working temperature above this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much solder is on the reel?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach reel holds 50g of 1.0mm diameter solder, which works out to around 7.5m of wire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need separate flux?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The wire has a flux core at 2.2%, so the flux is released as you solder.
