247-SNPB-15 No Clean SnPb Leaded Solder Paste 15 Grams Sn63/Pb37 T4 88% Metal

This allows human hands to effectively work with small, surface mounted electronic components effectively. I was very impressed. It is a tin / lead powder suspended in flux which allows for a precise application of the right amount to the right spot. It also allows for cooler temperatures to be used while still yielding an excellent result.

I didn't have a ton of time to test it but I laid a thin bead down each side for a SOP32 chip and used hot air at 400c. It wet and aligned nicely but I had a bridge or two that needed cleaning up afterwards but that was probably my line type application. Joints were shiny and strong. With a stencil or careful application to each pad, you likely won't get bridges. I mainly bought this for 0603 and smaller components that are difficult to hand solder.

The media could not be loaded.  This was my first experience reflow soldering. Obviously I didn't have an oven, but careful use of a heat gun worked well. The plastic tip supplied with the solder worked well for the 0805 (tiny) components. As I applied heat, I panicked a bit because everything kind of melted and went all over the board, but as it got hot enough for the solder to actually melt, it magically sucked the components into place and left me with beautiful (at least to me - I'm not a solder technician) solder joints.The completed project worked as expected, so the solder did its job that way too.My only (very small) complaint is it's basically impossible to get the tip clean for reuse. Denatured alcohol and an air compressor helped, but didn't get everything...

This is the first solder paste I've ever used. Works great for SMD stuff.There was some air in the tube. Not sure how to prevent that, but it creates a bit of a buffer; when you press the plunger, it compresses the air. And then the solder paste comes out. When you stop pressing the plunger, paste still seeps out a bit. Not sure if that's standard or not. But it's annoying.Wish it had a nice cap. I just put a plastic piece I got from a test lead on the end, and it mostly fits. I put it in the refrigerator when I'm not using it.It did come with two tips. Seems to work Ok with the smaller plastic one.Minus one star for no cap and air issue.

I love this stuff! Maybe I'm just super new to this thing and still hypnotized by how easy solder paste is to use, but I put a tiny bit on some surface mount chips and soldered them with my station, and all I can say is wow! As a novice in smd soldering I found this incredibly easy to get the hang of. I found that I was using more heat than I needed to do the job and over time I found a sweet spot for it. The solder reflows really well too once initially heated, the only drawback I found with the whole setup is the purple precision tip, you have to be a bit careful because it can build up some pressure and keep dispensing paste a little bit even when you pull the plunger back, but with practice it becomes less of an issue. This is the second solder paste tube I've ever had and it's way better than the first one I had which was a silver bearing solder paste.

This kit worked great! Come with two nozzles and a orange sealing cap. All the nozzles and cap twist into place on the syringe to form a tight seal. The pink (fine tipped) nozzle was PERFECT for applying a fine line on SOIC or dots of solder paste for diodes/caps. The solder paste wets fast and creates a quality joint. I was using a 350C Weller DC station with a fine tip. Drag soldered the SOICs. Amazingly easy, fast work soldering the items in the photo. I used isopropyl alcohol and a tooth brush to clean up residual paste. A 1mL medical syringe (slip the needle off the end) fits nicely into the pink nozzle for flushing the nozzle with alcohol. Would buy this again, but its going to take me a while to use up 15g of solder paste.

CLEARLY, I ordered solder paste with lead in it ... what I received was low temp, lead-free solder paste. And I'm not sure who's fault that is (Amazons? The manufacturer?) other than I know it's not my fault.Regardless, It's got a low melting point at 137C and it's good until March of next year (2022), so I'm going to keep it and see how it works. Though I won't review the product here since I would not be reviewing the product that this listing describes.

Very easy to use little bit goes a long was it is perfect for repairing small circuit boards with this it has the Flux and silver solder it melts at a lower temperature so you don't damage the board Great results with this
