I am looking for sources of temporary peelable solder mask to mask/cover holes on a circuit bd that need not be soldered during wave soldering�..must have distributors in Australia. I�ve contacted some down here but they do not have products package

Armin, I can supply you but wont. Why not? Because these materials have a short shelf life when packed into syringes. Your local supplier should be able to provide them but he will be obliged to make up a batch of 2 - 300 to be economical - but they

If you are getting solder shorts under a device, how would "hiding" the extra long pad with solder mask help? If the pad can't be seen once the device is in place, it is already "hidden". Getting your customer to redesign the pads may take some time

Sure, I'd expect your PCB fab has given you a information sheet on handling, storage, and whatnot, including recommended temporary solder masks. The cats & kitties in the stockroom are the first people to start your search. It's probably squirreled

We use boots / shunts er wutt ever you call them to protect solderable component surfaces from wave soldering. Not sure how it would work in your case try: * Kinnarney Rubber 450 Main St. P.O.Box 37 Mantua, N.J. 08051 609-468-1320 fax 7438 http://ww

| Can anyone recommend a solder stop that can be applied by our PCB supplier. Our current material form Tamura Kaken is causing problems. | | The material should be capable of withstanding 1 Surface mount IR reflow cycle and 1 wave solder cycle. | W

You weren�t clear but I assume the problem is not widely distributed and affects only a few parts on each board. Do this trick: * Cut a ~1� piece of fairly serious wire, like 18 or 12 AWG. * Strip the insulation. * Gear-up with gloves, glasses, and

Craig, I'd be really hesitant in pursuing this method for a TQFP. Remember, most SMD's are rated for a maximum rising slope of around 4C/Sec. Immersing a fragile TQFP in a hot wave of molten solder will probably exceed this ramp up rate. Besides thi
