Chemtronics Soder-Wick No Clean Desoldering Wick
Soder-Wick No Clean desoldering wick is designed to provide fast and safe desoldering without leaving behind harmful flux residues. Soder-Wick No Clean desoldering wick uses pure, oxygen-free copper braid and a patented flux technology to make an efficient and effective desoldering braid.
Soder-Wick brand desoldering wick offers the state of the art in desoldering technology. Soder-Wick is designed for todays heat sensitive electronic components using lighter mass, pure copper braid construction that allows for better thermal conductivity, even at low temperatures. Soder-Wick responds faster than conventional desoldering braids thereby minimizing overheating and preventing PCB damage. Each 25' or longer spool is individually packaged in a sealed bag. 5' and 10' bobbins have 2 packaging options: 25 bobbins in resealable bag 10 bobbins in resealable pouch
Key Features:
- Patented noncorrosive, halide free, organic no-clean flux
- Desolders up to 40% faster than competitive no-clean braids and leaves boards cleaner
- Meets Bellcore TR-NWT-000078 and ANSI IPC SF-818 for Surface Insulation Resistance
- ESD Safe bobbins meet specs: MIL-STD-1686C, MIL-HDBK-263B, Static decay provision of MIL-B-81705C
Typical Applications:
- Lugs and Posts
- Micro Circuits
- Surface Mount Device Pads
- Ball Grid Array Pads
Product Key Properties:
- Pure, oxygen-free copper braid
- Patented flux technology
- Halide-free, organic no-clean flux
- Available on ESD safe bobbins
Product Performance Benefits:
- Fast and safe desoldering
- Minimal risk of heat and static component damage
- Requires little or no post solder cleaning
- No corrosive residues
Usage Instructions:
- Choose a Soder-Wick No Clean width equal to or slightly larger than the pad or connection.
- Choose a solder iron tip equal to or slightly larger than the pad or connection.
- Set temperature of iron between 600-750F.
- Place wick on solder joint and place tip of hot iron on top of wick.
- As solder becomes molten, the color of the wick will change from copper to silver.
- Remove wick and iron from joint simultaneously once color change has stopped.
- The component lead / pad is now clean and free from solder.
- Clip and discard used portion of the wick.
