The numbers on the solder paste syringe are not an expiration date. They are; the lot #, weight of the material, and the date the solder paste was manufactured. According to the manufacturer it should be stored at room temperature and out of the sunlight. We have had some of our solder paste for a lot of years in a bin on our work bench and haven’t had any go bad or dry up. Just remember to put the cap on when not in use.
