Wiping Solder Content

[Alstep]

I have a bar of metal that is marked;

HEWITT METALS CORP.
X-WIPING
SOLDER

Can anybody give me a clue as to it's content?

After reading just a bit, do your ingot markings include the word "radium?"

[Alstep]

No "radium" markings.
Thanks for your responses.

The wipe bars I have is 38Sn 62Pb. But yours could vary depending on maker.
