Solder is a lead alloy with tin. Different mixes have different melting points, and for some work, silver is also added.
Sometimes for electronic work, solder is presented in the form of a wire with several cores of rosin inside it.
This was first made as a large billet of solder - the size of a pot - in which several holes were drilled and filled with rosin. The solder is then drawn out in a series of rollers in the same way that other wires are made from a billet of metal.
The function of the rosin is to clean the surface of the metals to be joined, so the solder may easily adhere.
For Plumbing use, acid cores are used, but these should never be used in electronics.

What are the six types of bad solder connections?
Cold solder joint: occurs when the joint doesn't fully melt, leading to poor electrical conductivity. Insufficient solder: not enough solder used, resulting in weak or incomplete bonds. Excessive solder: too much solder applied, causing bridging or short circuits. Solder balling: result of excess solder that forms into small balls. Solder splashes: occurs when excess solder splashes onto nearby components. Solder flux residue: leftover residue from flux can lead to corrosion or poor connections over time.
Is solder conductive?
A Conductor, SOLDER IS NOT AN INSULATOR. The most common types of solder are made of tin and lead. Another type is silver solder. All of the materials used are metals and are good conductors of both heat and electricity. If you solder something you would notice if you ever held a wire (without protection) while applying solder to it your finger would probably receive a burn (speaking from experience).
Is lead solder a ferrous metal?
No, lead solder is not a ferrous metal. Ferrous metals contain iron, while lead solder is primarily composed of tin and lead.
What is the chemical formula for solder?
The chemical formula for solder can vary depending on the type of solder being used, but a common formula is Sn (tin) mixed with Pb (lead), known as Sn-Pb solder. The ratio of tin to lead can differ, with common ratios being 60% tin and 40% lead (60/40 solder) or 63% tin and 37% lead (63/37 solder).
What is a solder splatter?
Solder splatter refers to small droplets or fragments of solder that can be scattered during the soldering process. This can happen when using too much solder or when the soldering iron is moved too quickly or forcefully. Solder splatter can cause short circuits or damage to surrounding components if not cleaned up properly.

What is a solder reel?
A reel of solder used for joining electrical circuits together on circuit boards. Solder is made of a mixture of tin and lead and sometimes has has flux (a form of acid) in the core of the solder to ensure a clean surface for the solder to flow into.
Where was the solder before he become a solder?

How do you solder onto a universal pcb?
The solder wont stick.
Unwanted formation of a conductive path of solder between conductors?
This is known as solder bridging, where an unintended connection forms between two conductive paths due to excess solder. It can cause short circuits and impact device functionality. Preventing solder bridging involves using the correct amount of solder and properly inspecting and cleaning the solder joints after soldering.
What flux and what solder is used to solder boat propellers?
The majority of boat props are aluminum. You can't solder it, it has to be welded or heli arced.
What is a solder sucker used for?
To remove melted solder, either as clean-up from a poor solder job, or in preparation for removing a component.
Are solder joints mechanically too weak?
Depends on the solder used. If silver solder is used it is actually stronger than the pipe itself.
