Henkel Lead-Free Product Re-tins Soldering Irons
Multicore TTC-LF allows soldering irons to be re-tinned, even when conventional methods such as sponges, pads or rosin-cored solder wire are not effective.
Applicable for lead and lead-free applications, the product is a small block of electronics lead-free grade solder powder and flux formed into the shape of a thick disk. For cleaning and de-wetting soldering irons, users need only wipe the tip of the soldering iron gently across the surface to produce local melting and then wipe as normal on a damp sponge to ready the iron for re-use.
Benefits include minimal residues, activators that thermally decompose into inert components and the ability to clean heavily oxidized metal surfaces such as copper and iron plated soldering tips.
