Water Soluble Flux Electronics

Made in the usa.

Water soluble flux electronics. 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. Fluxes containing halides and mineral acids are highly corrosive and require thorough removal. 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. These types of paste are generally high activation flux.

Water soluble fluxes and pastes provide good soldering results and bright solder joints because they are highly activated fluxes. Usually any cleaning is more of a matter of cosmetic appeal than actual contamination. Meets plumbing code requirements for water flushable fluxes. Most high rel people traditionally have used water soluble fluxes because they re stronger fluxes they give a more robust soldering process and they re easier to clean.

However they may be too aggressive calling for extra precaution during cleaning of the pcb assemblies to avoid flux contamination. Water soluble flux also called organic acid flux is typically made from glycol bases. Safe for use on potable water applications. It is is primarily composed of organic materials other than rosin or resin.

Ideal for working with supply lines for drinking water copper fire sprinklers and hydronic heating systems. According to the name these fluxes require little or no cleaning. Water soluble flux is also known as organic acid oa flux. These are fluxes primarily composed of organic materials other than rosin or resin.

Oatey products have earned the trust of plumbing professional for over 100 years. There are many cleaning agents that can be used for water soluble fluxes such as deionized water and detergents. Meets plumbing code astm b 813 standards for flux used in potable water systems. 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.

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. It can be used with most soft solders. Forney solder flux. In addition water soluble flux tends to be a more aggressive oxidizer than is usually required.

Water soluble tinning paste. Water soluble fluxes are also called organic acid oa fluxes. Some water soluble flux residues are hygroscopic which causes problems with electrical resistance and contributes to corrosion. It depends on what you are making.

Some fluxes especially borax based brazing ones form very hard glass like coatings that are difficult to remove. 5 paste flux is a petrolatum based flux designed to provide superior wetting properties for better solder flow. They have good wetting action ability to remove oxides and prepare a clean surface for soldering. Water soluble flux provides good soldering results because they have good flux activity.

Cleans and fluxes simultaneously.
