Pros & Cons
Pros
The 60/40 ratio is perfect. It wets easily and make an extremely strong chemical bond. Melts & adheres well. Hardens quickly with nice shine.
Very good, quality solder. Superbly excellent solder. Good packaging. Finally found a trusted product.
Big spool saves on re ordering frequently. Radio shack isn't open where i live anymore. Will last a long time.
If you are using leaded solder, this is the one to use. Been using lead tin kester solder for over 60 years since age 12, discovering electronics and later working in aerospace.
Not much to say. Still at a decent price. Worth every penny.
Cons
It seems disingenuous to sell something as new which has a shelf life and then to remove the information from the package which states when it was made.
Highlights
