Solderpaste and Flux Solutions
For Lead-Free Processes

Kester products for lead-free assembly are designed to enhance the wetting properties of lead-free alloys. The chemistries are more thermally stable and offer the engineer the maximum operating window for his process. Optimized flux chemistries results in solid reliability for the process and the assembly; this preserves production yields normally accustomed with tin-lead processes.

All products are available in industry standard packages.
