Kester Solder24-6337-8807 Kester Solder Solder Wire, 63/37 Sn/Pb, 183°C, 1 lb.

Super shiny, flows nice, just enough activation to cut through some light crud. Kester quality made in USA. DOM was just a few months ago. Fresh!

It is skinny and nice. Does the job quite well! The flux is good too. Also, there is so much, I will be able to use it for the next few years.

This solder flows amazingly well. It Shines like it has silver load in it. Would recommend to anyone that is looking for high quality solder! If you get this solder make sure you pick up a Flux scrubbing brush with it as this is does leave a bit of Flux on the board.

The best, hands down

I can work with this at 250 Celsius and it works amazing on both SMD and Thru-Hole packages. The finish is very shiny and the eutectic nature of the alloy gives very clean finishes. The 1.1% flux is alright but using additional flux is very helpful because the flux in the solder evaporates quickly. Note for SMD soldering, 0603 packages is the smallest you should be soldering with this (mainly what I solder), its doable but even then you need to be careful to not apply too much. For smaller packages it is too big, for thru-holes its perfect. Overall brilliant product, absolute must have for hobbyists.

Great Solder. Kester is a great brand. Very clean and low fumes. Great for general electronics.

If youre working with leaded solder, this is the standard. Been using it for year (decades..??). Easy to recommend.

Great solder for microminitrature electronic work! Very flexible and fine strand solder, melts evenly at very precise temprature. This is a purpose-built solder... If youre just soldering your stereo speakers with your radio shack soldering iron, move along! This is VERY narrow strand... .02mm Intended for small sensitive electronics work. PERFECT for reparing micro electonics, such as .3mm resistors, in todays electronic devices.

VERY fine-gauge precision 63/37 solder for electronic work or re-work. Usable for anything, but where this stuff shines is when youre replacing blown components on a PCB and cant be sure you can get all the flux off the board when youre done (you should still try with Isopropyl alcohol anyway) and not having a corroded mess a few years later matters. For larger soldering jobs youre going to feed a lot of this stuff, but thats ok. Its a nice-sized spool and will last you a long time; Kester makes some of the best and Ive been using it for more than 30 years. If you dont do fine PC work or rework the larger-diameter solder is more-convenient, but for high-precision work this is the jazz.

You always get quality with Kester but this particular blend flows as smooth as silk when working on smaller electronics projects. Like butta Most people never know the difference a quality solder can make until they use a product like this side-by-side with the brand-x cheap stuff from the dollar store. its only then that people have that ahh haaa moment and then probably go back home and do the same thing with all the other junk that the thought didnt matter like chucking the one-temp plug in style soldering iron for a Weller or a Hakko and basically just understanding that you cant produce quality work with poor quality tools and materials.
