Just FYI, the general suggested temperature for 60/40 is 375C. So 400 is not too far off.

- throwaway219450 11d agoDo you mean 375 F? 60/40 is liquid at that temp (374 F). 375 C is way overkill for lead unless your iron is terrible.
- xandrius 5d agoNope 350-375C. You want to have higher temperature on the tip to be able to melt it reliably. Look it up, also I discovered that 350C is not double as hot as 175C, actually just 25% more.
