Kester 24-6040-0053 Solder Roll, 66 Core Size, 0.050 Diameter

The best thickness for 95% of the work. I am an engineer, certified for soldered connection on maned space flight. By this solder.

Just want I needed and could not find locally. And the price was fair.

This is the best brand of Solder ever! Just what I was looking for. You will not go wrong purchasing this.

It is worth it. Don’t skimp on cheap stuff. It makes electronics work so much easier when you have good materials.

Thanks a lot

Best solder ever invented

Not much to say. Its solder, with 40% lead in it. Flows and wets wonderfully compared to lead free. Well worth the marginal increase in cancer risk if you use it regularly. Just remember its not RoHS compliant, so dont use it for work purposes if you have to follow RoHS guidelines.

I was recently running out of the 60/40 solder I had bought a few years ago for my guitar projects. I happened upon an old package of Kester leaded solder that my dad used many years ago for his occasional soldering projects. It flowed very well, solidified reliably, and the solder joints were consistently good. I eventually ran through my dads Kester solder and had to shop for another solder. I was surprised to find this Kester solder, and I ordered it right away. Note that I prefer this 0.05 diameter, as its the same gauge as my fathers old solder, and its the standard size Im used to. Its helps me to flow more solder when I need it. This Kester solder flows just like the older solder, heating up very quickly and consistently. The difference I notice is that the solder takes a moment longer to solidify. I need to wait a little longer before making sure the joint is firming up. Not a criticism, just an observation. I expect to be using Kester solder for many years to come.

Very good solder! Worth every penny. Flows so much better than the less expensive stuff I’ve purchased previously. I’ve had no problems at all using this brand. Highly recommend

its solder.....
