> 3 dayI use this product to solder very small electrical circuits. I got the .025 aka 23 gauge size. It flows good and makes an excellent solder joint. Its RA (rosin flux activated), which is one of the more aggressive decontaminates. Long story short, this is very good quality solder at a very good price. I would definitely recommend it.

Greater than one weekYep its a roll of solder - rosin core, good for electronics, the price although is about 1/3 or less what is charged locally so if you are in need of inexpensive solder this is a good option - flux works great no issues with filming or blobbing up - heat transfer is good and melts at lower temp than lead free solder - would recommend..

> 3 dayThis solder works great, flows easy but sets quick. I would recommend this to a friend, 63/37 is the only way to go for ease of assembly when building circuits.

> 3 dayThis is the One Solder For Everything. The flux is effective, but at only 2.2% doesnt leave a huge mess. The diameter is stiff enough to be easily used, but thin enough to provide good control for everything but the tiniest SMDs. The alloys is eutectic lead/tin, the best all around choice available if you can use leaded solder (which you really want to do). I have several different solders available, almost all leaded. This is one of the best all around-- up there with Kester and Alpha.

> 3 dayEutectic solder as advertised, works without that dreaded plastic-y phase you get with 60/40 blend. The rosin core is plentiful and aids in keeping tips clean and lean (and smells lovely! But thats neither here nor there, perhaps I shouldnt be enjoying the fumes as much as I do haha). Definitely recommend this for anyone doing electronics work or anyone looking for a eutectic solder. Good value for a half pound roll, which if I ever finish I will buy once again.

> 3 dayI now use this solder for everything. It wets very well and has a very effective flux. If you use this solder, I reccomend that you use a tip cleaner like this one (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005C789EU/ref=cm_cr_ryp_sol_prd_title) because your tip will get dirty from the strong flux.

> 3 dayI have a roll of this solder from a 2015 batch, and its perfect. I have another roll from a 2021 batch, and while it solders about the same, the actual solder on the roll is not smooth. Its covered with tiny dents, and frequntly breaks at those dents from handling, resulting in a lot of wasted solder.
