Silver Solder Wire used in Jewelry Making, Repair work such as sizing and mounting, for assembling silver jewelry, rings and components.
Silver solder comes in 3 grades… the grades are the relative temperature flow points between one and the other. The softer the solder the less content of silver with a lower melting temperature.
Solder Wire is 5 Feet long, (Approximately 1/4TOz)

NOTE: Cadmium FREE Solder
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.
