50/50 Tin-Lead Solid Solder Bars

Sold in 1-Pound Increments (Approx. 3–4 Bars Per Pound)

Rock Shot Products 50/50 Tin-Lead Solid Solder Bars are manufactured from a premium alloy containing 50% tin and 50% lead, providing dependable performance, excellent wetting characteristics, and strong, reliable solder joints for a wide variety of general-purpose soldering applications.
