322221 965 solder 1.6mm, 15g Acid Coil HandiPack coil
COMWELD 965 Solder is a tin / silver eutectic solder which has the highest strength of all soft solders. Due to it’s high strength, good electrical and thermal conductivity, non-toxicity (lead, zinc and cadmium free) and also the fact that it remains bright and shiny, make COMWELD 965 Solder the most universal of soft solders.
Comweld 965 Solder is used for the joining and repair of copper, bronze, brass, nickel, monel, steel, stainless steel, pewter, chrome plate, metal sculpture, model making, costume jewelry or a combination of metals with the exception of aluminium and magnesium. It is used in the manufacture and repair of refrigeration, air conditioning, heating, surgical and food equipment and for reliable electrical connections subject to high service stresses and temperatures. Comweld 965 Solder is often preferable due to its much lower melting point then silver brazing alloys, which eliminates the need for excessive heating during joining. Non-Toxic Solder.
Acid Cored Wire! Does it contain Acid?
The flux inside COMWELD ‘ACID-CORED’ wires does not actually contain acid, but the name is given to this flux because it has been formulated to provide a higher level of chemical cleaning action and fluxing activity needed to remove oxide and oxide skins from hard to solder metals such as heavily tarnished copper, copper alloys and difficult materials such as stainless steels that the relatively mild RESIN type flux could not cope with. The flux residues of the ACID-CORED wire are to some extent corrosive and, as such should not be used for electrical work. If possible, we recommend that the residues be washed off with water (preferably warm) after soldering.
