NT100Ge, a high-quality, low-cost alternative to silver-bearing solder, is produced using the same chemical composition as the solder alloy SN100C® marketed by Nihon Superior Sha Co., Ltd. and its licensees. This eutectic tin-copper-nickel alloy forms shiny, smooth, and robust interconnects for a wide range of electronics assembly requirements. With a melting temperature of 441°F, NT100Ge is compatible with all wave and selective solder equipment.
The small addition of Germanium in NT100Ge acts as a de-oxidant, similar to the effect of phosphorous in Sn63 alloys, keeping drossing to a minimum. NT100GeX is suitable for PCB fabrication applications like the hot air solder leveling (HASL) process when copper levels increase. NT100Ge can be used as a drop-in replacement for any existing 99C or SN100C solder bath, without the need for pot dumps or swaps.
Once NT100Ge is in use, Nathan Trotter offers free, unlimited solder analysis to help maintain J-STD specifications and an optimal soldering process. NT100Ge is available as extruded 1 kg tri-bar, 7 lb. feeder bar, and solid wire on spools.
Key features of NT100Ge solder alloy:
• Consistently smooth and shiny solder joint • Low-cost, lead-free solder alloy (no silver content)
• Superior wetting and performance
• Minimal dross
• Eutectic properties create efficient melting and freezing
• Operating temperature of 290°C – 320°C, similar to other lead-free solders
Nathan Trotter solder bar is suitable for wave soldering, solder dip, and solder coating applications, providing excellent performance across various soldering needs.
