VIEWPOINT 2026: Kelly Cardone, Vice President of Customer Experience, AIM SolderSupporting Customers Through Market Challenges
One such solution is REL61, our low-silver alloy developed specifically to address both cost and performance. REL61 contains significantly less silver than SAC305—currently the most expensive component in many lead-free alloys. By optimizing the formulation with a small percentage of bismuth, REL61 not only reduces cost but also improves strength, thermal fatigue resistance, and overall reliability in standard electronics manufacturing environments. We've also seen how shifting tariff regulations can disrupt production and sourcing strategies. AIM's global manufacturing network, including wholly owned facilities in North America, Asia, Europe, and India, has allowed us to remain flexible and help customers maintain continuity through some challenging trade and tariff situations. Through changing markets and evolving demands, AIM’s commitment stays constant: help our customers succeed—wherever they are, whatever they're facing.
