Multicore TTC-LF
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Multicore TTC-LF is a speedy and effective product for cleaning & re-tinning de-wetted soldering iron tips that cannot be re-tinned by sponges, pads or rosin cored solder wire. Multicore TTC-LF is a small block of electronics grade lead free solder powder and flux compacted into the shape of a thick disc, suitable for both lead & lead free application. It is packaged in a metal container complete with lid and self-adhesive pad on the underside so that it can be readily affixed to any convenient surface. | |
| Lead-free | Suitable for both lead-free & Sn-Pb process. |
| Rapidly re-tins badly oxidised soldering irons | Alloy meets international purity standards |
| Activators thermally decompose | Minimal residues |
| APPLICATION NOTES | CORROSION TESTS |
| Multicore TTC-LF should be used when soldering iron bits become oxidised and cannot be re-tinned using cored solder wire or solder and flux employed in the normal assembly process.
The soldering iron should be at normal working temperature and loose debris should be wiped from the surface. The tip should then be wiped gently across the surface iof the TTC-LF to produce local melting. There is no need to use a scraping action or undue pressue. If the iron is too cool (<220°C) residue inactivation cannot be assured. If it is too high (>450°C) re-tinning may be impaired. After re-tinning, the soldering iron bit should be wiped as normal on a damp sponge. It will then be ready for re-use. Multicore TTC-LF should not be used as a fluxing system for the regular assembly process. |
Multicore TTC-LF passes the corrosion tests to DTD 599A & BS 5625 copper mirror corrosion tests. The tests were carried out in the following manner:
UK Ministry of Defence DTD 599A Two pieces of copper foil, one 2" x 2" the other 2" x 2½" were polished with fine abrasive carborundum paper and degreased. The 2" x 2" copper square was dished and the other given a ¼" bend each side to make a 2" square "U-shaped coupon, 0.06g of Multicore TTC-LF was placed in the dished coupon and the "U"-shaped coupon was placed over the top and clamped together.
The assembly was placed in a fume cupboard and shielded from draught. A small Bunsen flame was placed beneath the assembly for the minimum time to completely melt the solder alloy in the Multicore TTC-LF. Immediately the test pieces had cooled they were separated and placed in a humidity cabinet 95% RH at 22°C for 24 hours. After this time, both panels were examined by x100 microscope for signs of corrosion. There was no evidence of corrosion on the lower or upper coupons.
British Standard 5625 The corrosion test on Multicore TTC-LF was carried out according to the specified method. 0.08g of Multicore TTC-LF was taken for each copper test panel. The test panels were heated at 235°C for the minimum time to completely melt the solder alloy then given a dwell time of 5 seconds. After cooling the panels were conditioned at 40°C, 91-95% RH for 3 days. The panels were inspected under x10 microscope for signs of corrosion. There was no evidence of corrosion. |
| TYPICAL PROPERTIES | |
| Multicore TTC-LF is a mixture including electronic grade solder powder and a unique fluxing system. The flux shows very high activity to clean heavily oxidised metal surfaces such as copper and iron plated soldering iron bits. It is formulated to decompose completely into inert components when exposed briefly to soldering temperatures. Consequently, the residues left after a normal bit retinning cycle is compatible with modern No Clean soldering processes. | |
| PACKAGING | |
| Multicore TTC1 blocks have a net weight of 15g (0.5oz) and are supplied in cartons of 10.
