Silver Solder Wire
Made in USA from 100% recycled metals
Solder wire is perfect for all your jewelry making and repair jobs. The wire is easy to cut into small pieces for precise placement or can be held with steel tweezers for direct soldering. Pepetools offer a wide range of solders in popular grades, supplied as round wire in two diameters, to suit most needs. Sheet is also available here.
Pro tip: - Hard solders melt at the highest temperature, followed by the medium which melts lower, then soft (or easy). Some grades also offer Extra soft (extra easy) which melts at the lowest temperature and is ideal for delicate repairs. A lower temperature soft solder joint can be made without the risk of melting a previous hard solder joint. Note also, the terms soft, medium, and hard refer to the relative melting points and do not describe the flexibility of the solder wire.
- Solder wire is available in 20 AWG (Approx. 0.8 mm Diameter)
- Cadmium Free
- Made in USA
All sheet and wire solder is sold by the Troy Ounce (31.1g)
As an approximate guide…..
20 AWG Silver solder 1 Oz is approximately 6m length
or around 19’ feet 8” inches
The length of solder per Oz will vary slightly according to grade, but in all cases, you will receive a minimum of 1 Troy Ounce by weight.
