ReMovl board-level shield incorporates ReCovr attachment mechanism applied to pickup bridge of BLS frame, allowing permanent, tool-less detachment of bridge after frame is soldered to PCB. Raised pickup bridge option permits clearance above components during placement and reflow. For manufacturing processes where post-reflow detachment of pickup bridge is beneficial/required. Has 0.080 in. height (min.), 0.071 in. top flange width, and 0.5-1.0 lb. typical pull force.
