Détails
60/40 common lead-bearing solder has a wide melting range. It is similar to 50/50 but flows faster due to its narrow melting range. This solder can, with some exceptions, be used to join copper and most copper alloys, lead, nickel alloys and steel. It is not recommended for joints subject to high stress or vibration in the cooling industry due to lack of sufficient elongation properties.
