Kester is proud to announce the launch of SELECT-10™Selective Solder Flux, a zero-halogen no-clean liquid flux designed specifically for the needs of the selective soldering process. As part of Kester’s portfolio of high reliability products, SELECT-10™ has passed IPC SIR testing as a raw and partially activated flux. Sustained activity within the flux allows for good barrel fill in challenging and high temperature applications. Specific to selective soldering, SELECT-10™ does not spread beyond the spray pattern and will not clog nozzles. SELECT-10™ is classified as ROL0 flux under IPC J-STD-004B.

FCT Assembly has formulated a unique halogen-free water soluble flux with high activity and neutral pH. FCT's 159HF is a highly versatile solder flux formulated to perform under high temperatures and is compatible with both leaded and lead free alloys. With the low solids content of 159HF, the water soluble flux is applicable in selective; drop-jet spray soldering applications while also being ideal for wave soldering. Because the flux stays active under critical temperatures during pre-heat and wave, 159HF performs exceptionally well in high temperature applications, especially with manufacturers using multilayer boards with lots of heat sink resulting in improved topside fill.
