Water Soluble Solder Flux

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.

Water soluble solder flux.

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. Phil well i think that answers that question fairly succinctly. 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. Water soluble wave solder flux.

They have good wetting action ability to remove oxides and prepare a clean surface for soldering. Oatey flux and solder pastes facilitate the soldering process removing dirt surface oxidation and other impurities from the solder joint. The unique chemistry of 1429 flux provides for self neutralization through a time temperature relationship which results in a residue which is neutral. Nice job jim as usual.

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. Solder paste is designed the oatey 8 oz. The oatey 8 oz.

Meets plumbing code astm b 813 standards for flux used in potable water systems. The lead free formula will not turn copper piping green. 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. There are three different categories of fluxes used to solder electronics according to ipc j std 004b rosin and rosin substitutes water soluble and no clean.

Water soluble flux is also known as organic acid oa flux. Water soluble flux provides good soldering results because they have good flux activity. Cleans and fluxes simultaneously. All oatey fluxes and pastes are lead free and come in a variety of formulas including water soluble and tinning.

Its high activity level makes it suitable for difficult to solder surfaces and it is compatible with all non water soluble solder masks. It is is primarily composed of organic materials other than rosin or resin. Solder paste is designed for use in joining or sweating copper piping and fittings. Water washable and 2.

Water washable flux may contain rosin and in addition a surfactant to remove the flux residue after reflow. Ideal for working with supply lines for drinking water copper fire sprinklers and hydronic heating systems. 80 is a neutral ph halide activated wave soldering formulation for foam wave and spray applications. Lead free water soluble solder flux paste.

Compatible with common plumbing solder alloys. After the soldering process the rosin and water soluble fluxes need to be chemically cleaned to remove any excess flux residue that remains.
