Could anyone recommend an esd safe masking tape for conformal coating that does not use a silicone based adhesive? I have looked into 3M's 7419 series and am awaiting samples, curious if there is another brand out there people have used. Thank you

Yeah it seems like a no-brainer. Thanks for the tip on the ESD-safe filament. I knew it had to exist. I've narrowed down a few models that seem perfect for this at a surprisingly low price point. Most of them come with their own designer and instru

Two questions on ESD: 1. What is recommended method ( Air ionizer , grounding strip etc. ) for a board prep ? We Kapton Tape for masking pads or not to be soldered areas. or Is there a wet mask recommended for masking boards campatible with NC Sold

Steve- I was once an auto body repairman in an automotive assembly plant. We used lead for dent filler instead of bondo. It was much faster to use. No cure time like a plastic filler needs. Lead was absorbed through my skin from hand filing the lead

Yes, electronics manufacturing is a volume producer of cardboard waste. If the components are ESD-critical, cardboard and most plastics are not ESD safe. Static charges can be generated on these materials during handling by the friction of dissimila

Is this safe to wavesolder the PCB in wave contaning carbon pads for switch or somekind of masking is to be put on that pads.

Be careful about the material you choose. All the materials out there are basically glass-filled epoxy composites, but they are different blends with different fillers. Some of them have carbon in the matrix to make them ESD safe, but it also short

Hello Dave, Solder mask rework has been performed on both bare and populated boards. There are factors that come into play with a populated board that make this type of rework more difficult, such as the density of components(especially around th
