Solder Info

Introducing Tix Solder: an innovative indium-based solder first developed in 1947 for the jewelry manufacturing and repair industry. Since its inception, Tix Products have expanded their reach across various industries, including electronics, plumbing, stained glass, and musical instruments, unlocking countless new applications.

Setting Tix Solder apart is its unique composition, featuring rare earth elements in the alloy, resulting in a higher price point justified by its unparalleled capabilities. With a melting point of 275°F—150°F lower than traditional lead-tin solders—and exceptional wetting ability, Tix Solder offers superior performance in a wide range of applications.

Boasting a specific gravity of 8:6 and a freezing point of 267.8°F, Tix Solder exhibits remarkable bonding strength of 4000 psi and impressive electrical conductivity. Furthermore, Tix Solder is tarnish resistant, containing no silver, and is compatible with a variety of metals and alloys, including platinum, gold, silver, stainless steel, alnico, and pewter. Notably, costume jewelry can be soldered without discoloring cemented stones, and solid-state components can be soldered without the need for a heatsink.

For optimal performance, Tix Flux, as detailed above, is recommended as a companion product. Elevate your soldering experience with Tix Solder today!
