A specific type of solder intended for bonding metals in a variety of applications is flux-cored solder wire. It is different from conventional solid wire solder in that it has a flux core, a chemical substance that is essential to the soldering process. Flux has several uses, including as cleaning the metal surfaces to be soldered, shielding them from oxidation, assisting with heat distribution, and lowering the solder's surface tension for better flow. Because of this, flux-cored solder wire is very good at producing durable and dependable solder junctions. It is widely used in plumbing to connect copper pipes, in electronics to solder components on printed circuit boards, and in many other sectors where clean, accurate soldering is necessary.
The IS Standard IS 1921:2005 for flux cored solder wire plays a crucial role in ensuring the quality, safety and reliability of soldering processes and products for manufacturers. IS 1921:2005 defines specific requirements for flux cored solder wire, including its composition, mechanical properties and performance characteristics. Manufacturers adhering to this standard can produce solder wire with consistent quality, minimizing defects and variations. IS 1921:2005 includes safety guidelines and requirements, helping manufacturers create a safe working environment for their employees and ensuring that soldering operations meet safety standards. Manufacturers that comply with IS 1921:2005 can meet these regulatory obligations, avoiding potential legal issues and fines.
Note: Obtaining the required ISI Mark Certification is needed for manufacturers of flux cored solder wire.
In order to guarantee that these soldering materials meet strict technical requirements, safety laws, and quality standards, ISI Certification is a crucial step. This certification eventually improves the performance and dependability of soldered connections in a variety of applications. In order to ensure the integrity and longevity of soldered connections, it gives businesses like electronics manufacturing, automobile assembly, and industrial fabrication the reassurance that the flux cored solder wire they use in their soldering operations is of the finest quality.
Indian Standards Institute, or ISI was renamed the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) in 1987. The official mark that the Bureau of Indian Standards provides for manufacturers of various goods is the ISI Mark. It is used to indicate compliance with Indian standards (IS) set by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and has been used as a conformity marking for industrial products. Manufacturers received permission from BIS to use the ISI Mark on items that comply with relevant Indian requirements through the product certification program.
Only manufacturers (domestic or foreign) who produce the finished product will be awarded ISI Certification. This will not be given to any product importers, traders, dealers, or distributors.

There are two approaches for Indian manufacturers to become certified with the ISI Mark:
Regular Procedure
With the possible exception of cases deemed "All India first," which might take up to 180 days, the licensing procedure is expected to be finished in 120 days. This timeline starts on the day the application is received, assuming that at different points in time the documentation, unit assessment, and product conformance are all deemed acceptable.
Step 1: Manufacturing Unit Customization in Compliance with Applicable Indian Standards
Step 2: Submission of the Application Form

Simplified Procedure
This is a much faster process than the standard procedure. After a factory inspection is deemed satisfactory and the initial evaluation establishes that the sample complies with the applicable Indian Standard(s), the license application process is expected to be finished in 30 days.
Step 1: Adapting the Manufacturing Unit to Comply with the Relevant Indian Standard
Step 2: Sample Testing
