MG Chemicals 63/37 Rosin Core Leaded Solder, 0.032 Diameter, 0.6 oz Pocket Pack

After years of using the highly rated Chinese cheap stuff on Amazon I got frustrated attempting to solder binding post/banana jacks to the pads on HP DPS power supplies. The end result was dull, crunchy and just looked terrible. Watched a video on YouTube by “learnelectronics” and he’s a diehard MG Chem fan…for good reason. I bought 2 packs so 4 tubes and I have 1 left after two months. I resoldered all the important stuff on my bench and felt so much satisfaction seeing the beautiful solder joints that flowed like a silver puddle of precious metal. Pictured is the first thing I soldered. I tinned the end of a 14AWG wire just to see if this was all its cracked up to be. Its so shiny I had trouble getting my camera to take a picture that allows you to see the wire because the solder is so perfectly round and reflective that my phones camera struggles to properly focus. I really can’t say enough about this stuff. It is absolutely worth every penny even when it’s not on sale. The 100g rolls of $8 China Special solder are garbage. Do you want to get bullied on the internet for your solder joints? No? Well the first step isn’t learning how to solder, its using God’s gift to electronic hobbyists, MG Chemicals. This stuff makes you WANT to spend all day with your iron.

Used cheap solder once and was a night more, this makes soldering much easier and more fun!

Works great for soldering LED tape lights to wire leads.

delivery on time, good product.

If you are looking for a great product that works good, for the right price, this is the one for you. A great buy!

Solder works great for the price, much better then the cheap Chinese stuff that comes in soldering kits, a great buy for occasional soldering.

This is really good stuff. I am going to buy some more so I never run out.

Excellent solder, high quality and a perfect melting point. Dont go cheap with your solder

Very pleasant to use. Will never go back to the cheap 60/40 stuff that usually comes with the soldering iron again.

Flows well and is thin enough for circuit/vero work, without being too flimsy. Started with a pocket pack and will be buying a spool soon.
