Mechanic XG-40 Solder Paste (15GR)
Mechanic XG-40 solder paste is a reliable solution for electronic soldering work that requires precision and quality. Made from a tin-lead alloy Sn63/Pb37, this 15 gram jar of paste offers an average melting point of approximately 185-190 ºC, ideal for a wide range of electronics applications.
Key features:
- Lead solder paste, composition Sn63/Pb37.
- Particle size between 25 and 45 microns for even application.
- Approximate capacity of 15 grams per jar.
- Average melting point, suitable for standard electronics soldering.
Use and applications:
This solder paste is widely used for repairs, assembly and maintenance of electronic components, especially on printed circuit boards and SMD components. Its lead content makes it suitable for personal use and repairs, although it is not recommended for industrial production due to regulatory restrictions.
Differences between Mechanic solder paste types:
- WQ86-50GR-Sn42Bi58: very low melting point (138-140 ºC), used for desoldering SMD ICs and components sensitive to high temperatures.
- XG-40 Sn63/Pb37: medium melting point (185-190 ºC), the traditional solder most commonly used for repairs and personal projects.
- BST-705 sn99cu07ag03: high melting point (235-240 ºC), lead-free alloy used in industrial production to comply with ROHS regulations.
Compatibility:
Compatible with standard soldering stations and tools for soldering electronic components. Ideal for soldering on electronic boards, LED strips, and SMD components that do not require extremely low temperatures or lead-free solder.
Usage recommendations:
- Use in ventilated areas to avoid inhaling fumes.
- Apply with suitable tools for best results.
- Not recommended for manufacturing commercial products due to the presence of lead.
Mechanic XG-40 15 gram solder paste is the perfect choice for those looking for a reliable product for electronics repairs and projects with a medium melting point and a classic tin-lead composition.
- Lead solder paste Sn63/Pb37 for electronic soldering.
- 25-45 micron particle size for precise application.
- Jar with an approximate capacity of 15 grams.
- Medium melting point between 185-190 ºC, ideal for repairs.
- Suitable for soldering SMD components and electronic boards.
Customer Questions & Answers
What particle size and box content does the product offer?
The Mechanic XG-30 solder paste contains particles with a diameter of 25-45 μm and comes in a package of approximately 15 grams. It includes no accessories other than the sealed container.
What electronic applications is this solder paste compatible with? Are there any regulatory restrictions?
It is ideal for soldering boards and electronic components in repair, prototyping or personal-use tasks. It is not suitable for manufacturing commercial products for sale due to the presence of lead, which contravenes the RoHS directive and equivalent regulations.
What is the best way to apply, store and preserve Mechanic XG-30 solder paste?
It is recommended to apply the paste with a spatula, syringe or stencil to the desired area and heat it to 185-190°C to ensure soldering. It should be stored in a tightly sealed container at temperatures between 2 °C and 10 °C to maintain viscosity and prevent oxidation. Under optimal conditions, shelf life exceeds 6 months.
What common problems can arise when using this solder paste, and how can they be avoided?
The most common problems include solder balls, poor adhesion or insufficient flux. To avoid this, make sure you use the recommended amount, apply it to clean surfaces and heat evenly to the correct temperature. Also, do not mix this paste with others of a different composition without prior testing, as this could alter the melting point.
What is the composition of Mechanic XG-40 solder paste?
The paste is made from a tin-lead alloy Sn63/Pb37.
What type of work is this solder paste recommended for?
It is ideal for electronics repairs and personal projects, especially for soldering SMD components and printed circuit boards.
Can this paste be used to manufacture commercial products?
No, because it contains lead, it is not recommended for industrial or commercial production that must comply with regulations such as ROHS.
What is the melting point of this solder paste?
The melting point is medium, approximately between 185 and 190 degrees Celsius.
What differences does this paste have compared with other Mechanic products?
The XG-40 has a medium melting point, while the WQ86 has a very low melting point and the BST-705 is lead-free with a high melting point.
