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.

Is soft solder a good conductor of electricity?
Yes: flux core solder is. No: acid core solder is not.
What are the six types of bad solder connections?
Six types of bad solder connections include a cold joint with insufficient wetting (Pin) or insufficient wetting (Pad), a disturbed joint, an overheated joint, too much solder, or not enough solder.
Does solder bend?
Yes. solder is very flexible and soft.
What is SN63BS solder?
SN63BS is SN63 in Bar Solder form
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).
How do you solder two metals?
with solder
Is it safe to solder inside?
Yes, usually no problem. If you know how to solder, then solder away.
Is flux in solder?
In some solder it is. But even if it is in the solder you should still use flux.
Is soft solder a good conductor of electricity?
Yes: flux core solder is. No: acid core solder is not.
Is solder a metallic compound?
Solder is a metallic alloy
What is solder used in?

What is solder melting point?
Depends on the kind of solder.
What are the six types of bad solder connections?
Six types of bad solder connections include a cold joint with insufficient wetting (Pin) or insufficient wetting (Pad), a disturbed joint, an overheated joint, too much solder, or not enough solder.
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?
he is in boot camp traning
What is legal solder?
