MONTREAL - AIM (aimsolder.com) will manufacture and sell Nihon Superior's (nihonsuperior.co.jp) Sn100C tin-copper-nickel solder alloy in North America.
The small amount of nickel in SN100C modifies its behavior so that in wave soldering the resultant alloy exhibits fluidity comparable with that of traditional tin-lead solder, AIM said in a press release. The result is that excess solder drains off the joint and bridges and icicles are avoided. The nickel also provides smooth, bright and well-formed fillets, AIM said.
SN100C contains no silver or phosphorus, and is not aggressive toward copper traces and pads or stainless-steel components of soldering equipment.
