Technical Information:
Repairs: Lower temperature solder is recommended for repair work, especially on pieces that may have been reworked and a high temperature solder may cause a problem.
Assembly Work: In multiple component soldering use the Higher Temperature Solder first, then a medium grade and finally to a soft the lower melting point.
Production: High temperature solder, the Hard grade should be used, with the higher silver content, better match of color and a stronger bond. Allowing future repairs to be performed with the softer solders.
Attention: These solders are made to be used with high heat torch or butane torch in order to reach melting temperature, it is not intended to be used with soldering iron.
