[Boatanchors] Solder 63/37 Alloy, .015" Dia., #44 RA

[Bob Scupp]

Hello All-

I worked in Albuquerque, New Mexico for Electronic
Parts Company for 16 years (1977-1993). We stocked
60/40 rosin core solder by the 1/2lb and 1lb. spools.
We also stocked 63/37 Ersin Multicore solder in one
pound spools. For general purpose applications
including printed circuit board applications, I do not
recall any complaints about using the 63/37 as a
substitute.

I agree with using 63/37 as a substitute for 60/40 if
the former is unavailable. It should work just fine.
