RF771 Rework Flux, 30 Gram, Syringe
Kester RF771 Rework Flux is a medium viscosity, water soluble flux designed for electronic component rework and repair applications. RF771 has a gel-like consistency and is easily applied by syringe dispensing. RF771 can be precisely dispensed onto a specific area that needs flux. After being dispensed, RF771 stays in place until soldering occurs. Traditional problems experienced with controlling the application of water soluble liquid fluxes are eliminated. RF771 has excellent performance in applications that require a flux having good thermal stability such as surface mount component repair. RF771 is the ideal choice for QFP or BGA semi-automated rework operations.
In addition, RF771 is well suited for use with through- hole repair operations where solder fountain or controlled solder reservoir is being used for selective component removal and repair. Residues that remain on surfaces after soldering are easily removed with hot water. RF771 can be used in combination with Kester water soluble cored wire solders and water soluble solder pastes, as well as water soluble liquid fluxes, to provide the complete water soluble soldering connection.
RoHS Compliance
This product meets the requirements of the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive, 2015/863 for the stated banned substances.
Cleaning
RF771 is a water soluble flux and the residues must be removed. The recommended method of removing flux residues is in a batch washer or in-line cleaner, using de-ionized or soft water. The recommended washing temperature is 54 to 66 °C (130 to 150 °F).
