I recently sent the message below, and would like to ask another
question.  For SAC305 what is the optimum over sizing of though holes,
as compared to the lead diameter.
 

 

 

Hello group

My name is Jon McDowell, and I work as a Quality Technician at ECCO in
Boise ID. We manufacture back-up warning alarms for the auto/truck
industries.

I have a question for you.

We are using the Pansert AVKII through hole insertion machine, which
call out that the diameter for through holes be .020 larger than the
upper tolerance of the wire diameter being inserted in that hole.

However I have been informed that a hole which is .020 over the lead
diameter may cause problems with soldering, particularly with the SAC95
solder. Can anyone advise on this.

Thank You
