R-TECH Lead-Free Sn-Cu-Ag-Ni-Ge Solder Wire

<P>Produced under license from Fuji, this lead-free 5-element solder contains tin (Sn), copper (Cu), silver (Ag), nickel (Ni) and germanium (Ge). The trace addition of nickel and germanium increases the fluidity of the solder and improves it's ease of wetting by reducing oxidisation on the surface. It produces bright, smooth fillets without shrink cracks or hot tears.</P>
