    Low-Melting-Point Solder for Low-Temperature Applications

    Even as temperatures approach absolute zero, this indium solder remains soft and malleable, allowing it to form an airtight seal between metal and certain non-metal materials. It’s often used in cryogenic applications, including those with liquid nitrogen. This solder has a lower melting point than most solders, so it’s good for sensitive assemblies, such as semiconductors and electronic components. Unlike commonly used tin-based solders, this solder won’t damage gold plating on circuit boards. It’s also a good conductor of heat and electricity. More durable than standard tin-lead solder, this solder is less likely to crack from repeated temperature swings. It’s low outgassing, so it’s good for use in high-vacuum applications.
    This indium-based solder can be cold welded, meaning it will bond to itself without heat. You can also use it for step soldering with traditional solders. It does not have a flux core; choose soldering flux to prepare workpieces for this solder.
    Leaded, Flux Required
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Solder. Low-Melting-Point Solder for Low-Temperature Applications.
    Leaded solder has greater tensile strength and density than other indium-based solders, giving it a stronger hold.

    100% Indium—Solder that is 100% indium has better thermal conductivity than solder that contains tin, and will cold weld more easily. However, it has lower tensile and shear strength than solder with tin.
    48% Tin—Solder with 48% tin has greater tensile and shear strength than 100% indium solder, but lower thermal and electrical conductivity.

    High-Density Low-Melting-Point Solder

    This bismuth-tin solder has similar performance properties to lead solder, but is also safe for use in food-processing equipment and copper water pipes. It has a lower melting point than most solders, so it’s good for sensitive assemblies, such as semiconductors and electronic components, as well as for step soldering with traditional solders. However, it’s less thermally conductive than other metals and more brittle than lead. Flux isn’t required, but for easier cleanup use it with no-clean soldering flux. Do not use this solder on drinking water pipes.
    Lead-Free, No Flux Required

    Lead-free solder is safer to use than leaded solder and helps meet industry regulations.
    1% Silver—Solder with 1% silver forms stronger bonds than solder without silver. It’s also more malleable and ductile. However, it has a higher melting point, so it takes longer to solder.

    Low-Melting-Point Solder Ribbon for Low-Temperature Applications

    Made with indium this solder is soft and malleable—even as temperatures approach absolute zero—allowing this solder to form an airtight seal between metal and certain non-metal materials. It’s often used in cryogenic applications, including those with liquid nitrogen. Thanks to its ribbon shape, this solder is easier to use on large, flat areas than wire solder.
    This solder has a lower melting point than most solders, making it good for sensitive assemblies, such as semiconductors and electronic components. Unlike commonly used tin-based solders, this solder won’t damage gold plating on circuit boards. It’s also a good conductor of heat and electricity.

    Solder Mask

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Solder Mask.
    Shield circuit boards from flux, solder, conformal coatings, and high temperatures. Heat resistant up to 640° F, solder mask is most often used to protect open through-holes and components during wave soldering. Solder mask can also act as a short-term adhesive to keep parts in place when you’re soldering a two-sided SMT circuit board. An alternative to masking tapes that require cutting to shape, solder mask flows easily into small spaces and doesn’t leave a residue when removed.
    Wash-Away Removal—Choose wash-away solder mask if you use a water-based cleaning process such as a batch or in-line cleaning system.
    Peel-Away Removal—Choose peel-away solder mask if you use a solvent-based cleaning process or don’t clean your circuit boards.
    15 min. Overall Dry Time—Solder mask with a 15-min. overall dry time cures more evenly than peel-away solder mask with a one-hr. overall dry time, so it can be applied in thick layers. It's also nonflammable.
    1 hr. Overall Dry Time—Peel-away solder mask with a one-hr. overall dry time produces low odors because it doesn’t contain ammonia. Wash-away solder mask with a one-hr. overall dry time is nonflammable. It's not completely water soluble, so it can’t be used in closed-loop cleaning systems.
    2 hr. Overall Dry Time—Solder mask with a two-hr. overall dry time is completely water soluble for use in closed-loop cleaning systems. It's slightly flammable.

    A high silver content allows these surface fillers to conduct electricity and heat. Use them to fill gaps and rebuild missing material on electrical connections or to assemble new components. They come as two parts. The size listed is the combined total of the two parts.
    Thermal Conductivity—Thermal conductivity measures a material’s ability to transfer heat. The higher the rating, the more heat it transfers.
    Electrical Volume Resistivity—Electrical volume resistivity measures how well a material opposes the flow of electricity. The lower the rating, the more electricity it conducts.

    Aluminum Foil Conductive Tape

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Conductive Tape. Aluminum Foil Conductive Tape.
    More conformable than copper foil electrical tape, this tape bonds to textured electronic housings, round cables, and other curved and irregular surfaces. Since it doesn’t leave gaps, it’s a great shield against electromagnetic interference (EMI). Its conductive backing and adhesive convert EMI into heat and reflect it away from your electronics. Use this tape on surfaces that can’t be soldered.

    Epoxy

    Dispense ready-to-use conductive liquid to fill pits and small gaps on circuit board components. These pens are also used to sketch and repair conductive pathways.
    Silver Filled—Silver epoxy pens are the most versatile—use them for any type of repair as well as for repairs that require excellent conductivity, such as connecting through holes on circuit boards without adding jumpers, wiring, or solder. Since they have the lowest surface resistivity, they allow the most current to pass.
    Cannot Be Sold To—Product labeling requirements restrict sales to the listed areas.

    Low-Outgassing Aluminum Foil Conductive Tape

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Conductive Tape. Low-Outgassing Aluminum Foil Conductive Tape.
    Tested to meet ASTM E595, a standard used by NASA, this tape gives off almost no volatile emissions that could damage sensitive electronics, even in a vacuum. It’s more conformable than copper tape, so you can cover textured housings and round cables without leaving gaps for electromagnetic interference (EMI) to get in. When EMI makes contact, the conductive backing and adhesive convert it into heat and actively reflect it away. The conductivity of this tape also makes it great for electrical connections. Use it on surfaces that can’t be soldered.
