Tergo high-performance flux remover is a non-flammable, low-temperature rinsing fluid with a non-volatile additive that performs cleaning function. Is engineered to clean high-temperature solder pastes and fluxes; removes white residues from printed circuit boards. Cleans complex shapes on PCBs. Can be used as a degreaser and to remove slight oxidation and tarnish from finished surfaces. Is compatible with vapor degreasing procedures.

TESE and JTSE precision hot air stations protect printed circuit boards and surrounding components as a result of PH218 control thermocouple. Have two work modes to control airflow and temperature. Can set temperature values and airflow rate manually or by creating up to 25 profiles. User can read temperature at a specific point on the PCB with control thermocouple. Auto-stop function ensures heat is automatically cut off when tool is in the stand. Use extractors, protectors and tripods for desoldering. Include extractor desk.
