ALPHA SACX Plus 0107

ALPHA SACX Plus 0107/SACX Plus 0100 LEAD FREE WAVE SOLDER METAL DESCRIPTION ALPHA SACX Plus 0107 is a lead-free alloy suitable for use as a replacement for Sn63 alloy in the wave solder process. The SACX Plus 0100 variant is used to stabilize / reduce the copper content in the wave solder bath, this requirement will depend on process conditions. As with all Alpha Metals bar solder, Alphas 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 dross formation, improve the joint cosmetics and hole fill. FEATURES & BENEFITS Features: ? YIELD FR2 boards Comparable to original SACX 0307, superior performance for bridging compared to Sn99.3/Cu0.7/Ni based alloys. ? PRICE Lower unit price due to reduction in Silver content. ? DROSS GENERATION Equivalent to original SACX 0307 ? COPPER DISSOLUTION Equivalent to original SACX 0307 Benefits: ? Lowers Total Cost of Ownership due to the lower material cost, high yields and low dross generation, suited for FR2 assemblies. Gives very good solderability due to the fast wetting speed. ? Gives very good drainage and hence lower levels of bridges due to the formulation containing Silver. ? Delivers good performance across a range of flux technologies. The proprietary Vaculoy process is a highly effective method for removing included oxides from solder. This is extremely important because included oxides generate excessive drossing and increase the viscosity of the solder. Solder with higher viscosity can result in increased soldering defects (i.e. solder bridging). APPLICATION ALPHA SACX Plus 0107 is suitable for wave soldering and selective soldering for electronic assemblers interested in implementing a lead-free process. It is suited to single side boards. A solder pot temperature of 255 - 265 C (491 509F) is recommended with a contact time 2.3 3.5 seconds. For suitable wave solder fluxes, please see our selector guide. Lead free Reclaim services including dedicated lead free containers are also available; please consult your local sales office.
