Kester 285 Flux-Cored Wire, Alloy Sn05Pb93.5Ag01.5

Developed to complement low residue liquid fluxes being used by the electronics industry. The chemistry is based on some of the same principles that have been safely used for years in mildly activated rosin fluxes. The use of 245 results in visually acceptable assemblies without cleaning, yet soldering quality and efficiency is comparable to that obtained with mildly activated rosin flux. 245 is classified as ROL0 per J-STD-004. 245 is Bellcore GR-78 compliant.

Performance Characteristics

• Industry Standard RMA cored wire

• Compatible with leaded and lead-free alloys

• Classified as ROL0 per J-STD-004

RoHS Compliance

This product meets the requirements of the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive, 2011/65/UE for the stated banned substances. (Applies only if this core flux is combined with a lead-free alloy).

Cleaning

285 flux residues are non-corrosive, non-conductive and do not require removal in most applications.
