CW-908 Aluminum-Cored Solder Wire is specifically designed for soldering to aluminum and aluminum alloys. Aluminum is a metal that it is hard to solder due to the high surface tension difference between it and molten solder alloy. This occurs because aluminum rapidly forms a tenacious oxide layer whenever it is exposed to air. The oxide layer impedes the solder from spreading evenly on an aluminum surface. Special fluxes are required to remove the oxide and to prevent it from reforming.
