Review on πŸ”‹ SRA TF5000 Tacky Flux, No Clean - 10cc by Mark Hanson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect. Tacky but does not interfere with repositioning

Excellent flux for repair or assembly. It's pleasantly sticky. Allows the SMD to be moved around easily, but is also sticky enough to hold the elements together until they melt. This is a good balance and is recommended. But one thing needs to be clear: Yes, you CAN do without post-reflow PCB assembly cleaning, but WHY? A few minutes in the ultrasonic cleaning will do wonders and show off the bright, shiny fillets of solder it can produce. Use with confidence, but CLEAN after assembly is complete!

Pros
  • This flux leaves very shiny solder joints, is non-corrosive and non-conductive
Cons
  • High price
