Flux Removers
Flux removers are essential products used in the electronics industry for the removal of flux residues. After the soldering process, flux residues can be left behind, potentially causing corrosion, electrical leakage, or decreased product reliability. Flux removers quickly and effectively eliminate these residues, ensuring the integrity and longevity of electronic assemblies.
At Conro, we offer a wide range of flux removers, including liquid solutions, spray removers and non-abrasive cleaning wipes, so you can find the ideal product for your needs. Our range of flux removers provides you with a reliable way to ensure that all excess flux is removed from circuit boards with no damage. All our products are tested to the highest standards and are sourced from leading brands such as Surclean and Zestron.
Conro is an authorized distributor for Surclean and Zestron.
Types of flux removers
Our collection of flux removers includes various types of products, to accommodate diverse requirements. The two main categories of flux removers include:
- Solvent-based: These removers are a popular choice for their excellent cleaning capabilities. They are formulated with powerful solvents that dissolve flux residues quickly, leaving behind a clean surface. Solvent-based products quickly evaporate after application. These removers are versatile and compatible with a wide range of flux types, making them suitable for various soldering applications.
- Water-based: These removers are more environmentally friendly and offer reduced odour compared to their solvent-based counterparts. Water-based removers provide excellent cleaning performance while being safer to handle and store. These removers are generally used in batch or in-line cleaning systems. They are effective on most types of flux.
Applications of flux removers
