FFF CompatibilityConsumable wire solder with identical physical spool size, wire diameter, and wire gauge. No physical adaptation or board redesign is required.Matches the exact spool packaging format and physical dimensions of the original product.Features the exact same alloy composition and flux chemistry, but uses a lower flux core concentration (2.2% flux by weight instead of 3.3%), reducing post-solder residue.Identical physical spool dimensions, 0.031" wire diameter, and leaded composition.Matches the physical presentation and spool format perfectly.Utilizes a fully activated Rosin (RA) flux instead of Mildly Activated (RMA). While RA offers stronger cleaning and wetting action, its residues are more chemically active and generally require post-soldering cleaning to prevent corrosion.
AI Summary

24-6337-9710 by Kester Solder: Leaded Rosin Mildly Activated (RMA) Wire Solder Sn63Pb37 (63/37) 20 AWG, 22 SWG Spool, 1 lb (454 g).

This is a direct sibling part from the same Kester 285 series. It features the exact same Sn63/Pb37 eutectic alloy and RMA flux chemistry, differing only in having a lower flux core content (2.2% instead of 3.3%). This provides identical thermal characteristics and wetting behavior while leaving less residue to clean up.

  • Same Kester 285 series Rosin Mildly Activated (RMA) flux chemistry (ROL0 per J-STD-004)
  • Identical eutectic Sn63/Pb37 alloy composition with a melting point of 183°C (361°F)
  • Same 0.031" (0.79mm) diameter (20 AWG / 22 SWG) and 1 lb spool packaging
  • Lower flux concentration (2.2% vs. 3.3%) might slightly reduce wetting speed on highly oxidized, difficult-to-solder surfaces.

This alternative is a sibling variant of the same alloy and diameter, but employs Kester's popular #44 Rosin Activated (RA) flux core. It provides excellent wetting performance, but unlike the RMA flux of the target part, RA residues are more corrosive and should be cleaned off after soldering.

  • Utilizes highly active #44 Rosin Activated (RA) flux core for superior wetting on heavily oxidized surfaces
  • Identical eutectic Sn63/Pb37 alloy with a 183°C (361°F) melting point
  • Identical 3.3% flux core percentage (66 core) and 0.031" diameter on a 1 lb spool
  • Residues are more active and must be cleaned off post-solder, whereas RMA residues can sometimes be left uncleaned in non-critical environments.

You searched one part. Parter watches your whole BOM.

  1. All your BOM, at once

    Parter maps every line to live stock, lead time, lifecycle and compliance data across the entire market — not part by part.

  2. Hear about problems before they hit production

    Allocation, EOL and last-time-buy notices surface the moment they appear, not when your buyer's PO bounces.

  3. Qualified replacements in minutes, not days

    Every at-risk line gets form-fit-function matches like the ones above — deltas flagged, evidence attached. Review, push to your BOM, and Parter starts watching the new part too.
