The guys at Honda on the east coast use a potatoe rub. They rub the pot be for solder isadded. Clainm they can reduce drosses that way. Funny how spuds and solder are so close to each other on The Forum here. Prolly explain why they let potatoe f

I use this directly in the solder pot inside the wave machine. It is small enough to float at the surface of the solder, yet by loading it it act as a sieve and retains the dross while most of the solder pass trough, allowing me to clean the whole po

We're not sure the specifics that BLT Circuit Services Ltd referenced, but many companies use dross reducing agents in their wave solder pots. Among dross reducing agent suppliers: * Fry [4100 Sixth Ave, Altoona, PA 16602; 814-946-1611 F814-944-8094

If you do not have a lot of TH joints there are some advantages. No boards "submarined" in solder pot on wave. You can solder the bottome side SMT parts rather than epoxy them when the parts are put down. This should reduce SMT defects and missing pa

We all know that purity of nitrogen is critical for selective soldering. When it comes to wave solder- how much or what percentage reduction in oxygen is enough to make a difference in 1) at least reducing dross buildup and 2) being anble to cut ba
