SHENMAO Introduces Cutting-Edge Low-Temperature Lead-Free Solder Wire PF735-LT201
August 10, 2023 | SHENMAOEstimated reading time: 1 minute
SHENMAO America, Inc. is pleased to announce the availability of its PF735-LT201 Low-Temperature Lead-Free No-Clean Solder Wire. This advanced solder wire is designed to meet the evolving needs of the electronics industry, offering exceptional solderability and reliability for low-temperature PCBA soldering and rework processes.
The creation of PF735-LT201 stems from a comprehensive understanding of industry trends and challenges. With the growing demand for ultra-thin packages, the risk of package warpage increases, leading to production yield loss. SHENMAO’s innovative solution addresses this issue by offering a low-melting-point, lead-free no-clean solder wire optimized for low-temperature PCBA soldering and rework processes.
The PF735-LT201 solder wire boasts a range of exceptional features, setting a new benchmark for soldering technology. The solder wire achieves remarkable solderability by incorporating special low-temperature rosin and activators, ensuring optimal adhesion and a strong bond. The soldering process with PF735-LT201 results in colorless flux residue, thanks to the inclusion of special surfactants.
PF735-LT201 is halogen-free (ROL0) and fully compliant with RoHS, RoHS 2.0, and REACH regulations, aligning with SHENMAO’s commitment to environmental responsibility. With reduced splash and smoke during soldering, PF735-LT201 enhances the working environment while delivering excellent solder joint strength, reliability and resistance to thermal and mechanical fatigue.
SHENMAO’s LTS materials have the unique capability to reduce reflow temperatures, thereby decreasing PCB and substrate deformation. This results in improved production yield rates and elevated quality standards.

With package sizes like 01005 and 0201 becoming more common in high-density layouts, designers are now expected to pack more performance into smaller spaces than ever before. While these advancements support miniaturization and functionality, they introduce new assembly challenges, particularly with traditional solder mask and legend application processes.
Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Tin Whisker Mitigation in Aerospace Applications, Part 3
06/25/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileTin whiskers are slender, hair-like metallic growths that can develop on the surface of tin-plated electronic components. Typically measuring a few micrometers in diameter and growing several millimeters in length, they form through an electrochemical process influenced by environmental factors such as temperature variations, mechanical or compressive stress, and the aging of solder alloys.
