Hi Jacki,

You should change to SN100C instead of SAC305.

It give you excellent quality: 1. Can reduced solder short & icicles problem. 2. Very shinning solder joints.

Hi Zaza

Thanks. Again, very appreciate if you advise me where I can get the SN100C solder bar that is water soluable. Now I'm checking Nihon Superior(Singapore) whether they have or not. As our customer's preference, we have to use the watersoluable materials in Flux,Solder wire,paste and Bar.

Jacki, your original post was regards to wave solder bath. With solder bar, there is no flux and you do not need to look for WS Sn100C. Sn100C is only a metal alloy.
