Indium to Showcase High-Reliability Solder and Flux-Cored Wire Solutions at SMTA International
October 9, 2025 | Indium CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
As one of the leading materials providers in the electronics industry, Indium Corporation® will feature its innovative, high-reliability solder and flux-cored wire products at SMTA International (SMTAI), to be held October 19-23 in Rosemont, Illinois.
The company will showcase the following among its featured products:
- Durafuse® HR, a trusted and proven solder paste alloy technology, delivers enhanced thermal cycling capabilities (-40°C/125°C and -40°C/150°C) and superior voiding control for high-reliability automotive applications. It also offers reduced solder joint cracking and increased shear strength.
- Durafuse® LT is a solder paste alloy system engineered to decrease peak reflow temperature without compromising performance. It can reduce energy usage, improve reliability, and enable step soldering. It is ideal for assemblies with large temperature gradients and components prone to complex warpage during reflow. Durafuse® LT delivers superior thermal cycling and drop shock performance, outperforming conventional low-temperature solders like BiSn or BiSnAg alloys, and can outperform SAC305 under optimal process conditions.
- Indium12.9HF is a no-clean, halogen-free solder paste specifically formulated to accommodate fine-feature printing, as seen with 01005 and 008004 components. It offers unprecedented stencil print transfer efficiency to work in the broadest range of processes to boost SPI yields. Indium12.9HF also delivers low voiding at BGA, CSP, LGA, and QFN, and high oxidation resistance without graping or solder balling on pads as small as 175 microns in air reflow.
- CW-807RS is a new high-reliability, halide- and halogen-free flux-cored wire that improves wetting speeds and cycle times for electronics assembly and robot soldering applications.
- CW-818 is a halide-free, no-clean cored wire with spatter control technology that provides fast wetting speeds to minimize cycle times in manual and robotic soldering processes.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
