It was originally a British product. 63/37 is called "eutectic"
grade. This alloy is perhaps the best for overall electronic work. There
is three states of solder during
use: liquid, solid and the "mushy" state. "Eutectic" is the alloy of lead
and tin where
the "mushy" state is at a minimum. Eutectic solder alloy goes very quickly
from a liquidous to a solidus state.
I haven't bought anything in years and years that was as good as the
Ersin solder.
Early versions had a triple cored flux channel. Today's version has five
flux cores.
