Does this apply to 60/40?
A. Hi Les, thank you for your question. The permissible level of Lead is 0.3% in the solder.
Q. Please can you tell me the length of solder on this reel.
Thanks
A. Hi Terry, thank you for your question. The approximate length will be 140 metres.

Great Stuff

After getting back into soldering and electronics, I wanted some lead solder as I have always liked using it and have done for years.
This spool was perfect It flows nicely when soldering and makes a great bond, Im sure I will be using the same spool for quite some time and when I do I will most likely get this same one again
I still use 60/40 solder

Still sticking to 60/40 solder for hobby use, flows easily and I can trust the resulting joint. This amount of solder should see me out.
