Product Description

Soder-Wick Lead-Free is the state of the art in desoldering

technology. It is specially designed for removal of today’s high

temperature lead-free solders. The single layer weave used for

Soder-Wick Lead-Free braid is lighter in mass than any other

desoldering braid available and allows for lead-free solder

removal at lower temperatures. Soder-Wick Lead-Free

responds faster than any other conventional desoldering braid.

This unique design minimizes overheating and requires less

“contact” time thus preventing heat damage to the PCB and

sensitive components. For Lead-Free rework, Soder-Wick has

the answer.

● Fastest wicking and heat transfer

● High capacity for solder uptake

● Halide free, no corrosive residues

● Minimizes risk of heat damage to pads, components and

PBCs

● Can be used with Tin/Lead solders

● RoHS compliant

Typical Applications

Soder-Wick Lead-Free desoldering braid safely removes solder

from:

● Thru-hole Components

● SMT Pads and BGA Pads

● Micro Circuits

● Terminals, Lugs and Posts

● Identification Script

Usage Instructions

For industrial use only. Read SDS carefully prior to use.

1) Choose a Soder-WickÒ Lead-Free braid width equal to

or slightly larger than the pad or connection.

2) Choose a solder iron tip equal to or slightly larger than

the pad or connection.

3) Set temperature of iron between 600-750°F.

4) Place wick on solder joint and place tip of hot iron on

top of wick.

5) As solder becomes molten, the color of the wick will

change from copper to silver.

6) Remove wick and iron from joint simultaneously once

color change has stopped.

7) The component lead / pad is now clean and free from

solder.

8) Clip and discard used portion of the wick

9) If needed, clean PCB with CircuitWorks Lead-Free Flux

Remover Pen CW9400 and remove soils with a

ControlWipes absorbent wipe.
