What you see is what you get with lead free.
Personally, I'm stocking up on leaded solder before it disappears.

The only thing you need worry about is the higher temperatures required for the solder, as insulation and parts are temp sensitive. Quote:
A process hint: When using this higher temp stuff, I use a liquid R type flux, squirt a little into the joint, then use the iron to melt the solder, push the solder inbetween the tip and the part..Let the molten solder heat the parts up, instead of the iron to part contact. If you work this right, you can keep the parts from getting too hot while the reflow is taking place. It's like heating chocolate by using a pan within a pan, water being the transfer fluid..the inner pan will never go over 100C. Takes a little practice, but the guys here larned it purty quick, and so far, only one bad joint. Cheers, John |
