Sn60-Pb40 Rosin Core Solder Wire

This Sn60-Pb40 rosin core solder wire contains 60% tin and 40% lead with 1.8% flux content. The 0.8mm diameter suits precise electronics work. It is intended for hobbyists and technicians repairing circuit boards, radios, TVs and similar home appliances.

Check melting point and flux needs

Verify that a 60/40 tin-lead alloy matches the thermal profile of your components and that 1.8% rosin flux is adequate for the surfaces you are joining. Confirm the 0.8mm diameter feeds correctly through your soldering iron tip or hand-feeding setup. Ensure lead-based solder is permitted for your application and workspace.

Low-melt alloy on 50g spool

The wire melts at a low temperature, flows smoothly and forms strong joints quickly. A 50g spool provides enough length for multiple small jobs while remaining easy to store. The rosin core cleans oxidation during heating, reducing the need for separate flux. Standard diameter works with most common soldering stations and irons.

Questions about this item

What comes in the package and is anything else required?

The package contains a 50 g spool of 0.8 mm Sn60-Pb40 rosin-core solder wire with 1.8 % flux. No extra items are included; a soldering iron and tip cleaner are needed separately.

Should I choose this 0.8 mm diameter or a different size?

The 0.8 mm diameter suits general through-hole work on circuit boards, TVs, radios and home appliances; finer gauges are better for dense SMD pads, thicker gauges for heavy connectors.

What does the Sn60-Pb40 alloy mean for everyday soldering?

The 60 % tin, 40 % lead alloy melts at a low temperature, flows smoothly and solidifies quickly, producing strong joints with the 1.8 % rosin flux already inside the wire.
