After finishing #4439, I'm getting low on solder. I've always used Ersin Multicore (now part of Loctite), and got my last pound from Digi-Key, which doesn't stock it anymore. Searching the archive, it seems that it's pretty hard to find a distributor for Multicore these days. A bit of web searching found a supplier, with reasonable prices and no minimum order. They seem to carry most of the Multicore wire solder:
https://rshughes.com/catalog/129900.html They have the .020 63/37 WRAP3 fluxed stuff (MM00979) on which a group buy was done last spring, for $9.50. WRAP3 appears to be an activated rosin flux. I've been pretty happy with their Crystal 400 2% flux (MM01054), so I'm ordering a spool of that, for the same price. Info on the Crystal 400 flux is here: http://www.prime-electronics.com.au/datasheets/Multicore/Solder%20Wire/No%20Clean/Crystal%20400,%20500,%20502,%20505%20&%20511.pdf _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
