It was a TYPO, Dorky! What a CS argument.""Entering a "4" instead of a "3" could certainly be considered a typo. But it is such a blatent error, and we have what, 30 minutes to edit it, right? And your response to my providing what, 5 or 6 alloy types with that temperature being...kssssshhhhh.
And, don't forget the rest of your sentence..here, I'll repeat it again..JC: ""
Folks, I want to know how a spool of SN62 that has a melting point of 460 degrees F needs a special rosin.""Duh, what part do you not understand???? The specific line of discussion centers around the inability of a spool of solder, yours, to wet anything. Your description of it's action is consistent with the formation of a heavy oxide layer on the surface, one which destroy's the internal flux's ability to remove it.
Your question is therefore consistent with a complete lack of knowledge with respect to the action for which a flux is responsible. (in other words, you don't know what you are talking about..)
I don't call that a typo, John..it's lack of knowledge..
Again, that in itself is not a problem for me. There is lots you have no knowledge on, and that also applies to me.
And, let us not forget...my answer to your specific problem was to use a (edit)flux(edit) which had a higher activation temperature and a higher activity level, as I couldn't tell if you had the alloy type wrong, or the melt temp wrong...I covered all bases, and gave you a flux recommendation which I use for tin/silver alloys.
jc: ""
I have Manko by my side, and have used it for approximately 20 years. The roll of solder that I still have, is defective, AND added rosin does NOT help. Why talk around something that you know nothing specifically about? ""It is quite clear that I know what I'm talking about, and it is quite clear that you are relying on an out of date book for recommendations you are foisting on everybody else, and that you do not understand the differences between R, RMA, RA type fluxes, their activation temperatures, and the chemistry required for the removel of oxides from differing base metals. For the chemistry aspect, I rely on vendors such as Superior Flux, as they have different products for different base metals.
The world moves on, John...did you forget to buy a ticket??
jc: ""
And then you attack me for commenting about my OWN roll of solder.""No, I have pointed out that by your very own questions and statements, you do not have a good knowledge of the subject. And yet, you have the gall to accuse me of having less material science knowledge than most anybody here, you included?? Silly.
Pointing those facts our is not an attack, John...it is pointing out the obvious.
Cheers, John
