The soft solder commonly used for welding and plumbing is typically an alloy of lead and tin. This alloy is known for its low melting point, making it suitable for joining metals at lower temperatures. The combination of lead and tin creates a solder with desirable properties for these applications, such as good flow characteristics and a strong bond. The specific ratio of lead to tin can vary, but common compositions include 60% tin and 40% lead (60/40) or 63% tin and 37% lead (63/37).
