Recently, the price of tin has been fluctuating constantly every day. Many merchants encounter a common problem when customers who need solder wire, solder rods, and solder paste make purchases. They often discuss what the price is today.
Ah! Come on! The price of tin is so high?"
The price is so high. Did the boss make a mistake in his calculation?
When will the price of tin drop?
Then I'll check again in two days.
Has the price of tin dropped?
"No. It went up again today??"
"I should listen to you. I placed the order yesterday..."
Regarding the rise and fall of tin prices, as for the soldering industrySolder paste manufacturerThe editor is also quite impatient. The raw materials are2021Since the beginning of this year, the overall trend has been on the rise. For a period of time last year, the news was that the tin smelting plant under Yunnan Tin Research Institute, the largest domestic producer of primary tin, was shut down for maintenance45For about a day, the world's largest tin ingot producer has been shut down for more than a month. Due to the subsequent power rationing and the recent recurrence of the epidemic, it is expected that the tin price will not have a significant decline in the coming month. The domestic tin price has reached a record high and is gradually stabilizing. The space for increase is unprecedentedly large. Although the tin price seems to have declined somewhat, the space is very small.
So what should be done? Here, we can only tell old customers or some new ones. It is suggested that manufacturers in need of solder wire, solder bars and solder paste purchase and produce in small batches in multiple batches and keep an eye on changes in the solder market. The factors determining the price of solder wire, apart from market conditions, mainly include its alloy composition, technical difficulty and production difficulty. The commonly used lead-free tin wires in the market include silver-containing lead-free tin wires and regular lead-free tin wires. Silver is a precious metal, so the higher the silver content of the tin wire, the higher its price.
