Desoldering Braid Compatable With ROHS Requirements

A Desoldering braid which is effective for lead free solder and comes in replaceable cassettes that fit into a gun-style dispenser for easy one-handed operation is available from Xuron Corp. of Saco, Maine.

The WickGun™ Desoldering Braid Dispenser is a hand-held tool that lets users dispense, position and cut-off braid with one hand; while holding a soldering iron in the other. Featuring a braid with no clean flux, which is effective for use with lead free solder, required by RoHS, this WickGun™ eliminates handling braid, reduces waste, and speeds Desoldering.

Available in four braid sizes from 0.035” to 0.110” W, the cassettes are preloaded with 15 feet of braid and are easy to change. The Xuron WickGun™ Desoldering Braid Dispenser allows the braid to be advanced and retracted using a thumbwheel and then cut-off by squeezing the trigger.

Literature and pricing are available upon request.
