totally agree.
I use kester 66/44 eutetic tin-lead solder on anything I care about.
It's said that light-dark auto helmets make someone a welder nearly overnight; I think that same way about eutetic solder and soldering, it makes the job so much easier that the quality of the work skyrockets.
- KMag 7y agoAny idea why, if the parts don't add to 100, they don't reduce the fraction in the solder name from 66/44 to 3/2? Un-reduced portions are handy if they're percentages, but if they're not going to be percentages, why not reduce the fraction?
- nerdponx 7y agoMight be a typo? Usually you have 60/40 and 63/37.
- jiveturkey 7y agobecause you're comparing it to 63/37. it's much easier to grok the comparison when you use the same "units". in racing, they say to drive 10/10ths. not 1's. for the same reason.
- Dylan16807 7y agoIf they don't add up to 100, and neither of the numbers matches the default, they're not the same units.
