Solder Alloys - Leadfree

ALPHA SACX ANTI-OXIDANT ADDITIVE
The Solder Connection

SACXTM alloy contains an Anti-Oxidant Additive. This additive reduces the oxidation of the solder, but due to preferential oxidation over Tin, Silver and Copper it is consumed in the process.

For most medium/high volume operations the level of this dross reducing additive is naturally kept in equilibrium by the regular addition of fresh solder. For some lower volume operations where the wave is on for extended periods and the alloy usage is low the levels may need to be replenished by the small addition of SACXTM Anti-oxidant Additive.

You should look to add 600 gms per 100 kgs of pot metal.

ALPHA VACULOY LEAD FREE SAC 305 SOLDER ALLOY
The Solder Connection

The most common choice for wave soldering today is that of SAC305 this alloy is based on Tin 96.5%/ Silver 3.0% / Copper 0.5%.

This is deemed to be the most suitable drop in replacement for the traditional 63/37 alloy.

Excellent wetting and top side hole fill.

ALPHA VACULOY LEAD FREE SACX SOLDER ALLOY
The Solder Connection

The SACX alloy has been developed by Alpha as an alternative when considering the change to lead free wave soldering. The alloy exhibits similiar performance parameters to that of SAC305 but due to its lower Silver percentage (0.3%) it gives you the added benefit of a lower purchase cost.

Available in 1kg bar's and chunks (in kg's).

ALPHA VACULOY SACX DT 0307
The Solder Connection

Alpha Vaculoy SACX DT 0307 is a lead-free alloy suitable for use as a replacement for Sn63 alloy in the dip tinning process or in mini wave rework. The SACX DT 0300 variant is used to stabilize/reduce the copper content in dip tinning pot or mini wave pot, this requirement will depend on process conditions. This alloy is a variant of the SACX alloy for wave solder, and is compatible with the SACX wave alloy when used in mini pot rework. As with all Alpha Metals bar solder, Alpha's proprietary Vaculoy alloying process is used to remove certain impurities, particularly oxides. The product is further enhanced with the addition of 3 minor elements to reduce copper dissolution, dross formation and improve the joint cosmetics.

ALPHA VACULOY SACX0307 HASL
The Solder Connection

ALPHA Vaculoy SACX0307 HASL is a lead-free alloy suitable for use as a replacement for Sn63 alloy in the hot air solder level process.

The SACX0300 HASL variant is used to stabilize / reduce the copper content in the hot air solder level machine solder bath, this requirement will depend on process conditions.
