Water soluble soldering flux.

Water washable and 2. Forney solder flux. Water soluble flux is also known as organic acid oa flux. In addition water soluble flux tends to be a more aggressive oxidizer than.

Ideal for working with supply lines for drinking water copper fire sprinklers and hydronic heating systems. It is is primarily composed of organic materials other than rosin or resin. Lead free water soluble flux paste and 4 oz. 2235 a flux with comparably low solids in respect to other fluxes in the same category will produce fewer skips on the bottom side surface mount pads.

Additionally the water soluble nature of the organic acid flux allows the pcb to be easily cleaned with regular water just protect components that should not get wet. Hands free solder heat shield. Water soluble flux also called organic acid flux is typically made from glycol bases. These materials are also available in powder mesh sizes 3 4 5.

Nice job jim as usual. Phil well i think that answers that question fairly succinctly. Superior flux mfg. The downside to using water soluble flux is it often bonds with the circuit board itself or other metal surfaces and as a result will require thorough cleaning.

Co s 8800 series lead free water soluble solder paste is available in the following lead free solder alloy sac305 sn96 5 ag3 5. I think from a soldering standpoint you ll prefer to use a water soluble flux because of the potential of more stronger acids. There are basically two types 1. They have good wetting action ability to remove oxides and prepare a clean surface for soldering.

Water soluble generally uses organic acid activators as the flux and every component in the flux system should be soluble in water and therefore clean with only water. Meets plumbing code astm b 813 standards for flux used in potable water systems. Lead free silver solder wire oatey 9 in. Soldering kit with 1 7 oz.

Water soluble flux provides good soldering results because they have good flux activity. Silver solder wire safe flo 0 25 lb. This is jim hall and phil zarrow of itm consulting saying that no matter what type of flux system you use don t solder like. 2235 soldering flux kester 2235 is a high activity 11 solids organic flux designed for automated soldering of circuit board assemblies where a more aggressive flux is required but reliability considerations are paramount.

Because the oa residue is electrically conductive and affects the operation and performance of a circuit remove the flux residue when you re done soldering. 1429 soldering flux kester 1429 voc free organic water soluble flux is a self neutralizing type of flux formulation based on research work originally performed at the battelle memorial institute.
