RMweb Gold Right Away Posted March 15 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 15 (edited) Could any member recommend a “Lead Free-Rosin Free” solder which would be suitable for brass modelling tasks, etchings and small kits etc. Similarly, a Rosin-Free flux. The reason for the “safer” specs is because of a respiratory condition. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

RMweb Premium spamcan61 Posted March 15 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 15 96S is my usual non lead based solder, but I'm finding it tricky to find any non flux cored solder at hobby level quantities / pricing Is it specifically the lead you need to avoid?

RMweb Gold Right Away Posted March 15 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted March 15 (edited) Hi Spamcan61, my usual rosin-cored lead-free solder is fine for occasional electrical work. Seeking to do more prolonged work, I have been advised to use a solder that is free of both. Online searches show that such solder is available but it is relatively expensive.
