Low silver content bar solder

The Vaculoy process

ALPHA Vaculoy solders are manufactured from high-purity raw materials.

The company’s own Vaculoy process produces alloys with lower viscosity and reduced dross content. The result is a high-purity solder alloy that is free from moulded-in impurities and trapped oxides.

This proprietary process step prior to casting results in the following advantages:

Removal of finely dispersed suspended oxides contained in the raw materials
Increased flowability, resulting in fewer soldering defects
Reduced dross formation ensures that solder baths remain clean for longer.

ALPHA SACX Plus 0807

ALPHA SACX Plus 0807 is a lead-free alloy with a low silver content that has been specially developed with proprietary additives to achieve similar soldering and reliability results as SAC alloys with a higher silver content. The SACX 0800 variant is used to stabilise/reduce the copper content in the wave solder bath. Its use depends on the respective process conditions.

ALPHA SACX Plus 0807 can be used for the widest range of assemblies and operating conditions of all low-silver or silver-free alloys available today.

Features ALPHA SACX Plus 0807

SAC305-like performance
Fast wetting and wide process window
Strong, ductile bond for high mechanical reliability
Lower material costs than SAC305
