Indium3.1 is a water-soluble Pb-free solder paste with advanced printing capability, ideal for fine-pitch applications. The exceptional stencil life virtually eliminates solder paste waste. Indium3.1 demonstrates excellent wetting under both air and nitrogen reflow atmosphere, with any residue easily cleaned with water. The resultant solder joints are shiny and smooth, including those of ultra fine-pitch components. Indium3.1 also features a wide reflow window, outstanding slump resistance, low voiding and low foaming. Standard packaging for stencil printing applications is 500g jars and 700g cartridges.
