A spool of 0.8 mm 60/40 tin-lead rosin-core solder wire, 50 g net weight

60/40 Low Melt Tin Lead Rosin Core Solder Wire 0.8mm 50g

SKU CH-MT90-NY5FR

A 60/40 tin-lead rosin-core solder wire, 0.8 mm diameter on a 50 g spool, melting near 183 °C for electronic assembly

  • Standards/Certificationslead, soldering wire
  • 60 % tin and 40 % lead alloy melts at 183 °C for reliable joints
  • 8 % rosin flux core cleans surfaces while you solder for stronger bonds
  • 8 mm diameter feeds smoothly through fine tips for precise work
  • 50 g spool supplies enough wire for multiple DIY and repair tasks
  • Low melting point reduces heat stress on sensitive electronic components

0.8 mm 60/40 solder wire for electronics

This 0.8 mm diameter solder wire contains 60% tin and 40% lead with a 1.8% rosin flux core. It melts at approximately 183 °C (361 °F) and is supplied as a 50 g spool. The alloy and flux combination produces firm, lustrous joints with good fluidity for hand soldering.

Suitable for hobbyists and repair work.

The tin-lead composition and rosin flux make it well suited for through-hole components, wire tinning and general DIY electronics assembly. Buyers who must meet RoHS or other lead-free requirements cannot use this alloy. The 0.8 mm thickness may also be less convenient for very fine-pitch surface-mount pads.

60/40 tin-lead alloy with 1.8% rosin flux

The single specification that decides suitability is the 60% tin, 40% lead alloy paired with a 1.8% rosin core. It determines melting behaviour, joint appearance and whether the solder complies with lead-free regulations for the intended application.

Highlights

  • 60 % tin and 40 % lead alloy melts at 183 °C for reliable joints

Questions about this item

What soldering iron temperature range is needed to melt the 183°C alloy?

A soldering iron capable of reaching at least 183°C (361°F) is required to melt the Sn60/Pb40 alloy cleanly.

Can the 0.8mm diameter wire be used with a fine conical tip for dense through-hole boards?

Yes, the 0.8mm diameter feeds well through fine conical tips and suits standard through-hole component spacing.

How can I confirm the 1.8% rosin flux is activating properly during a joint?

The flux should produce a brief, clean smoke plume and leave a shiny, concave fillet with no dull or granular surface.
