Mobile Repairing Tools For D Soldering wire

Desoldering braid, also known as solder wick or solder remover wick, is a tool used to remove solder from electronic components and circuit boards. Here’s how it works:

1. Material Composition: Desoldering braid is typically made from fine copper wire braided together. The braid is coated with flux, which helps in the solder removal process.

2. Absorption Process: When you place desoldering braid over solder joints that need to be removed, you heat the braid and the solder together with a soldering iron. The flux in the braid becomes active when heated, lowering the melting point of the solder.

3. Capillary Action: As the solder melts due to the heat from the soldering iron, it is drawn into the braided copper wires through capillary action. The flux helps to keep the solder liquid and aids in its absorption into the braid.

4. Effective Removal: Once the solder is absorbed into the braid, it solidifies within the copper wires, effectively removing it from the joint on the circuit board or component.

5. Usage: To use desoldering braid effectively, place it over the solder joint, apply the soldering iron tip to the braid and the solder joint simultaneously, and allow the solder to wick into the braid. Move the braid and the iron as necessary to cover all the soldered area until the joint is clear.

Desoldering braid is a handy tool for repairing or modifying electronic circuits by cleanly removing excess or unwanted solder.
