Description

S-250/FR is the standard flux for wave soldering. Special additives ensure a fine-pored, stable foam head. It is successfully used on a wide variety of system and wave types in both leaded and lead-free processes. Its high temperature stability and very good activity over a wide temperature range ensure a wide process window with the best soldering results. The surfaces are very clean after soldering and the SIR is above the standard specifications. S-250/FR is suitable for foam and spray fluxing, it is not recommended for selective and hand soldering (see also product matrix). In practice, it has been shown that when used correctly, washing of PCBs soldered with this flux can be largely dispensed with. IC testing with needle adapters is generally not impaired.

Customer added value

  • Very good soldering properties (wetting)
  • Broad process window (very high thermal stability, good activity over a long interval)
  • Very good residue behavior (very clean, high SIR)
