I use Kyzen's Aquanox SSA cleaner in a heated parts cleaning tub to clean anything with flux condensate on it. When heated to 120F, the stuff melts away like ice under hot water. When the cleaning solution is loaded, I send it in an evaporator. The s

Sure it's conceivable that thin HASL can cause tombstoning. Harkening back to the ample discussion in the fine SMTnet Archives, tombstoning is caused by an imbalance in solder surface tension between the two pads of SMT component. The source of thi
