Our verdict

A lead-free, no-clean flux-core solder wire in a one pound coil. The listing offers little beyond alloy, melting range and diameter, so flux content and approvals are not stated.

Overview

A lead-free electronics bench is the setting for this Kester wire, a no-clean flux-core solder in a tin, copper, nickel and bismuth alloy. It comes as a round coil.

Lead-free alloy and no-clean flux suit electronics work that avoids both lead and board washing. The limitation is missing detail: flux percentage and classification are absent, and the diameter reads slightly differently in the title and spec table.

Who it's for

Technicians who must avoid lead in assemblies and want to skip a wash step get both from the alloy and flux named here. Those who need documented flux ratings should look for a listing that gives them.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • No-clean flux core
  • Stated melting range
  • One pound coil
Cons
  • Flux percentage not listed
  • Diameter rounded in spec table
  • Description is a bare product string

Performance notes

Flux in the core cleans the joint as it melts, and the alloy flows once the iron exceeds the stated melting range. The no-clean flux is meant to leave residue that does not need removal.
