Eh? Silver solder is certainly very nice, flows well, bonds to a lot of metals,
etc., but isn't it usually _higher_ melting point? Conventional solder melts at
around 450 F, I think. (Anyone have the exact figure?), silver solder typically
at 600.
The melting point of solder varies depending on its composition. Eutectic
solder (63/37) melts at about 361 degrees F and the melting point raises as
the percentage of either the lead or tin content raises.
