Water Soluble Soldering Flux

They have good wetting action ability to remove oxides and prepare a clean surface for soldering.

Water soluble soldering flux.

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. Water washable and 2. Superior flux mfg. Phil well i think that answers that question fairly succinctly.

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. Hands free solder heat shield. There are basically two types 1. 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.

Lead free silver solder wire oatey 9 in. Lead free water soluble flux paste and 4 oz. Water soluble flux also called organic acid flux is typically made from glycol bases. Silver solder wire safe flo 0 25 lb.

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. It is is primarily composed of organic materials other than rosin or resin. These materials are also available in powder mesh sizes 3 4 5. Forney solder flux.

Ideal for working with supply lines for drinking water copper fire sprinklers and hydronic heating systems. Water soluble flux is also known as organic acid oa flux. Co s 8800 series lead free water soluble solder paste is available in the following lead free solder alloy sac305 sn96 5 ag3 5. Soldering kit with 1 7 oz.

Nice job jim as usual. 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. Meets plumbing code requirements for water flushable fluxes. In addition water soluble flux tends to be a more aggressive oxidizer than.

Water soluble flux provides good soldering results because they have good flux activity. 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. The unique chemistry of 1429 flux provides for self neutralization through a time temperature relationship which results in a residue which is neutral. 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.

I think from a soldering standpoint you ll prefer to use a water soluble flux because of the potential of more stronger acids. Meets plumbing code astm b 813 standards for flux used in potable water systems.
