Andy:
The potential for this would depend on some specifics. However, generically depending on the mixture ratio
of tin/zinc one alloy that I have seen used was a 91Sn9Zn. This piticular mix has 14 deg. F higher melting
temperature and has (although I do not believe that you need it) a higher tinsel strength.
