ALPHA 857 Soldering Flux Key Features and Performance Benefits
Engineered for high-volume automated production, ALPHA 857 delivers excellent stability and cleaning performance:
- Efficient Foaming & Low-Smoking: Generates a fine-bubble foam head at moderate air flow rates that breaks and recovers rapidly for thorough coverage at high production speeds.
- Bright Solder Connections: Highly active formula produces bright, shiny solder joints even on challenging surfaces.
- Rinse-Aid Free Cleaning: Post-soldering residues can be washed using water without requiring special rinse aids, generating little to no foaming in wash systems.
- Biodegradable Effluent: Formulated for environmental safety, ensuring cleaning process water effluent is fully biodegradable (local regulations may require pretreatment to raise pH).
