Features:
- Low temperature eutectic solder
- Lead-free
- Higher strength and fatigue resistance comparing to Sn63Pb37
- Good wettability
Description:
Bi58Sn42 eutectic solder have a melting temperature as low as 138ºC . The addition of Bi lower the melting temperature, surface tension and the reaction rate between solder and copper, ensuring good wettability. Besides, Bi58Sn42 has higher strength and fatigue resistance comparing to Sn63Pb37. Bi58Sn42 solder has been widely used in low temperature assembly of microelectronic devices.
