Soder-Wick, significantly reduces rework/repair time and minimizes the risk of heat damage to the board. Its geometrically precise weave design allows for maximum capillary action and solder capacity. Soder-Wick desoldering braid optimizes heat transfer through the braid and into the solder joint, resulting in faster wicking action than any other competitive brand. Minimal flux residue on the board speeds up the cleaning process, or eliminates it entirely. - Soder-Wick desoldering braid is available in the most comprehensive variety of widths, lengths and flux types. Application-specific sizes allow for precision solder removal in a flash. Sealed in Performance Pak™ barrier Packaging and VacuPak™ vacuum sealed packaging, Soder-Wick desoldering braid is completely protected from the harmful effects of the environment.
