MECHANIC Solder Wick R300 Width 1.5mm Length 1.5m

The MECHANIC R300 Solder Wick is a precision desoldering tool designed for efficient removal of excess solder from printed circuit boards (PCBs). With a width of 1.5mm and a length of 1.5 meters, it is well-suited for various electronic repair tasks, including surface-mount device (SMD) rework and through-hole component desoldering.

🔧 Key Features

• High-Quality Copper Construction
  Crafted from pure copper strands, ensuring excellent thermal conductivity and rapid heat transfer for effective solder absorption.

• Pre-Fluxed Braid
  The braid is pre-treated with flux, enhancing its solder-wicking capabilities and reducing the need for additional flux application.

• Anti-Oxidation Treatment
  Specially treated to resist oxidation, prolonging shelf life and maintaining performance over time.

• Flexible and Durable Design
  The braid’s flexibility allows it to conform to various components and PCB layouts, while its durability ensures consistent performance during repeated use.

🛠️ Applications

• PCB Repair and Rework: Ideal for removing solder from pads, traces, and component leads during repair or replacement.

• SMD Component Desoldering: Effectively removes solder from fine-pitch SMD components without damaging pads.

• Through-Hole Component Removal: Assists in clearing solder from through-hole joints, facilitating component extraction.

• General Electronics Maintenance: Useful for correcting solder bridges, cleaning up excess solder, and preparing surfaces for new soldering.

✅ Usage Instructions

1. Preparation: Ensure the soldering iron tip is clean and properly tinned.

2. Placement: Position the solder wick over the solder to be removed.

3. Heating: Place the heated soldering iron tip on top of the wick, allowing heat to transfer through the braid to the solder joint.

4. Solder Absorption: As the solder melts, it will be drawn up into the braid.

5. Removal: Once the solder has been absorbed, remove both the iron and wick simultaneously.

6. Trimming: Cut off and discard the used portion of the wick; repeat the process as needed with a fresh section.
