Kester part number 24-7068-1400 is a professional lead free solder wire featuring the SAC alloy composition of 96.5% tin, 3% silver, and 0.5% copper, with a 0.062 inch diameter and 48 rosin activated flux. This size is ideal for PCB assembly, electronics rework, through hole soldering, and precision repair work where medium to larger joints require reliable wetting and clean fillets. The rosin activated flux provides excellent flow and wetting characteristics while remaining easy to clean after use, making it a dependable choice for technical professionals who demand consistent results. RoHS compliant and manufactured in the USA, this solder melts at 217-220°C and is engineered for demanding production and field repair environments.
Ultra fine sized diameter useful for precision soldering and micro electronics.
.015" (0.4 mm)
Very fine sized diameter useful for precision soldering and jobs requiring small amounts of solder.
.020" (0.5 mm)
Fine sized diameter used for through hole and and surface mount work. Delivers a Controlled amount of solder.
.025" (0.6 mm)
Ideal for standard circuit board components where precision is needed but not ultra-fine work.
