What is tin-antimony soldering?

Tin-antimony solder is a lead-free alloy designed to join joints that must withstand greater mechanical stresses than those made with conventional tin-lead alloys.

It is ideal for the installation of drinking water systems, capillary soldering of copper pipes, as well as for heating and cooling applications.

It meets the quality standards established by ASTM B 32-04 and ICONTEC 2700.

Available compositions

Alloy Presentation / Minimum Order Melting point Typical application
95/5 Sb (Sn/Sb) Wire reel of 1 lb and 1/2 lb, Box of bars / 1 lb 25 units, 1/2 lb 50 units, Box x 25kg 232–240°C Drinking water, heating, and cooling pipes
ℹ️ Antimony improves the mechanical strength of the alloy without incorporating lead, making it suitable for applications in contact with drinking water and food.
