Kester 24-6337-8817 is a professional grade solder wire featuring Sn63Pb37 alloy composition with 1.1% 245 Rosin Activated flux core, ideal for PCB assembly, electronics rework, through hole soldering, and general repair work. The .062" diameter provides excellent control for medium to larger soldering joints while the eutectic alloy melts at 183°C for reliable, consistent results. The 245 flux formulation leaves minimal residue on the board, reducing post solder cleaning requirements without sacrificing joint quality. This 1 lb spool of USA made solder is a trusted choice for professional technicians and repair shops who demand precision and repeatability in their soldering operations.
