Review title: Would probably buy with No-Clean Flux next time
Product review: I use a variable temperature soldering station(under the Xytronic brand) which I set to 550* F. The Kester 44 63/37 solder melts quickly at this temperature. It leaves nice shiny and strong solder joints. If re-work(desoldering) is needed it again melts quickly. The solder wire diameter/size/gauge at .031 inches works well for both SMD components and soldering different sized wire to switches, potentiometers, etc. It also works well with the cheaper variable wattage Stahl Tools(Parts Express) soldering station.There is only 1 complaint - there seems to be too much flux/rosin in this solder. After soldering for a few minutes my iron-chrome plated tip starts turning brown from flux/rosin residue. I have to turn up the temperature to clean it off on a sponge(I prefer not to use the brass wire tip cleaner on a hot tip). Because of this in the future I would buy the No Clean flux solder.
