Description

Indium Solder Preforms available on Tape and Reel

The use of Solder Fortification Preforms will add more solder volume and help obtain the correct amount of solder therefore ensuring a much strong solder joints. This is particularly useful in situations where there is reduced stencil thickness, such as those with a pitch of 0.3mm or less or where there are tightly fitted components, which is now becoming the norm within the SMT industry as the miniaturization trend shows no signs of slowing.

Indium Solder preforms are generally rectangle or disc shaped pieces of alloyed metal that do not contain any flux. Since the alloy for both the preform and paste are the same, the preform reflows at the same temperature as the paste and the paste in turn provides the necessary flux. The preform increases the volume of solder above that of the paste alone.

SMT Industrial offers a wide selection of shapes and sizes of solder preforms.
