Value Collection AIMFREESOL093-1 Lead-free Solder

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION AIMFREESOL093-1 is a lead-free solid wire solder supplied in a 1-pound spool at 13 gauge. It is a RoHS-compliant consumable used in plumbing, HVAC, and electrical trade work where lead-based solders are prohibited by code or specification. Solid wire construction eliminates the flux core common in electronics-grade solder, making it suitable for sweat-soldering copper pipe joints and fittings. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians reach for this product when working on potable water systems or any application requiring a lead-free alloy.

This solder is applicable in residential and light commercial settings. Typical use cases include sweat-joining copper water supply lines, refrigerant-rated copper tubing repairs, and general metalwork where a solid, lead-free filler wire is required. The 13 gauge wire diameter feeds smoothly around fittings during hand-held torch work, providing consistent flow and fill at standard copper soldering temperatures.

Key Features

• Lead-free alloy formulation meets code requirements for potable water and restricted-lead applications
• Solid wire construction with no flux core for use with separately applied flux
• 13 gauge wire diameter for controlled feed and consistent joint fill
• 1-pound spool provides substantial working quantity for multi-joint jobs
• UNSPSC Code 23271806 for procurement and cataloging alignment

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose lead-free solid wire solder suitable for copper pipe and fitting applications in plumbing and HVAC systems where lead-free solder is specified or required by code.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician following applicable local plumbing codes and IFGC guidelines. Shut off and depressurize the water or refrigerant line before soldering, and ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and properly fluxed prior to applying heat. Use a calibrated torch appropriate for the pipe diameter and fitting type. Do not overheat the joint, as excess heat can burn off flux and result in a cold or porous solder connection.
