Default Re: Availability of Leaded Solder?

Wharton's solder is pretty good, it's what I use for SMD work and is available in very fine gauges indeed. Rapid sell that in numerous grades though it isn't cheap.
I also had some Cookson (successor to Fry's) 60/40, no idea where it came from, I think it might have been Farnell's Multicomp brand, again no complaints.

Years back we had a rep from 'Cel' and my boss at the time bought a carton off him. Worked very well but smelled rather acrid.

Ersin Savbit smells the nicest, sort of musky!
