Indium NC-SMQ92J Solder Paste PASTEOT-82342-1000G | 63Sn/37Pb No-Clean | 1000g Cartridge | MOQ: 3

Indium NC-SMQ92J Solder Paste — PASTEOT-82342-1000G | 63Sn/37Pb No-Clean | 1000g Cartridge | MOQ: 3

Indium NC-SMQ92J (SKU: PASTEOT-82342-1000G) is a halogen-free, no-clean solder paste in a high-volume 1000g cartridge format. Formulated with 63Sn/37Pb eutectic alloy (Indalloy 106) at Type 3 powder and 85% metal load, this production-grade cartridge is designed for high-throughput SMT stencil printing lines where reduced cartridge change frequency and consistent paste volume are critical. NC-SMQ92J leaves a benign, probe-testable no-clean residue that will not clog multi-point ICT probes. Minimum order quantity: 3 cartridges. Ships overnight only due to refrigeration requirements.

Key Specifications

Key Features

• 1000g high-volume cartridge — production-grade format reduces cartridge change frequency on high-throughput SMT stencil printing lines, improving uptime and throughput
• 85% metal load — higher metal content delivers denser solder joints, reduced voiding, and consistent joint quality on fine-pitch and standard SMT pads
• Probe-testable no-clean residue — benign post-reflow residue easily penetrated by multi-point ICT probes; cleaning not required on most assemblies
• Halogen-free formulation — meets ANSI/J-STD-004 and Bellcore halide-free criteria for high-reliability and environmentally sensitive electronics manufacturing
• Excellent air reflow wetting — superior wetting in standard air reflow ovens without nitrogen atmosphere
• Extended stencil life and tack time — optimized for long production runs, high-mix environments, and high-speed SMT lines
• Consistent fine-pitch printing — reliable paste deposition on fine-pitch and ultra-fine-pitch component pads at high print speeds
• ANSI/J-STD-004 & J-STD-005 compliant — meets or surpasses all applicable IPC and Bellcore specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the MOQ for PASTEOT-82342-1000G?
The minimum order quantity for PASTEOT-82342-1000G is 3 cartridges. This MOQ reflects the production-grade nature of the 1000g cartridge format, typically ordered by facilities with sustained high-volume SMT output. Contact MTE Solutions at 651-600-3838 to discuss order quantities and volume pricing.

What cartridge dispenser is compatible with the 1000g NC-SMQ92J cartridge?
The 1000g cartridge format is designed for use with high-volume solder paste cartridge dispensers compatible with the cartridge's outer diameter and nozzle interface. Verify compatibility with your specific SMT equipment manufacturer's specifications. Contact MTE Solutions for dispensing equipment guidance.

What is the difference between the 1000g cartridge and the 500g jar format?
The 1000g cartridge (PASTEOT-82342-1000G) is a sealed cartridge format used with cartridge-style paste dispensers on automated SMT lines — minimizing paste exposure and contamination during printing. The 500g jar (PASTEOT-83495) is used with a squeegee for manual or semi-automated stencil printing. The 1000g cartridge is better suited for high-volume automated production; the jar is more flexible for varied production environments.

Does NC-SMQ92J PASTEOT-82342-1000G require cleaning after reflow?
No — NC-SMQ92J is a no-clean formulation. Post-reflow residue is benign and probe-testable for ICT. If conformal coating will be applied over residue, consult the Indium NC-SMQ92J TDS for coating compatibility.

Why does solder paste require overnight shipping?
Solder paste is temperature-sensitive and must be shipped and stored refrigerated (0–10°C) to preserve flux activity, viscosity, and shelf life. Refrigerate immediately upon receipt and allow to reach room temperature before opening and use.

What is the shelf life of NC-SMQ92J in cartridge format?
Typically 6 months when stored refrigerated at 0–10°C. Refer to the Indium NC-SMQ92J Technical Data Sheet for lot-specific shelf life data or contact MTE Solutions for current lot information.
