December 21, 2015 | AIM SolderEstimated reading time: 1 minute
AIM is pleased to announce their participation at the upcoming AHR Expo that will take place from January 25th – 27th, 2016 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. AIM will feature their new NITRO Flux soldering paste along with their full line of solder assembly materials for the plumbing industry in booth 5478. The 2016 AHR Expo marks the second consecutive year that AIM will participate at the show.
NITRO Flux, a new soldering paste for the plumbing industry, was formulated specifically for effectiveness on copper, tin and lead, and lead-free brass. NITRO promotes excellent solderability and post-soldering residues can be easily wiped clean. The creamy texture and viscosity allows the product to hold its form and stay in place while soldering.
AIM will begin their 2016 trade show calendar exhibiting at the AHR Expo in Orlando, the biggest HVACR (Heating, Ventilation, Air-Conditioning, and Refrigeration) trade show of its kind. The show has over 2,000 registered exhibitors and 60,000 professionals.
“We are looking forward to seeing our current and potential customers,” said Dan Leblond, AIM’s National Plumbing Sales Manager. "We had exceptional success participating at the previous AHR Expo in Chicago and we plan to continue that level of success at this valuable show.”

Fresh PCB Concepts: Assembly Challenges with Micro Components and Standard Solder Mask Practices
06/26/2025 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsMicro components have redefined what is possible in PCB design. 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.
