Chipquik Tack Flux no clean in a 10cc syringe w/plunger & tip - SMD291

Love the dispenser and the flex works very well. Cleans up with alcohol nicely.

Good solder flux makes all the difference soldering surface mount components. You can never use too much, and this was easy to clean. TIP: Ive found the easiest way to clean the metal dispensing tips is to briefly soak it in alcohol and then blow it out with an air compressor nozzle. Push the nozzle up tight to the plastic end so no air escapes and it will blow the stuff right out the end.

Love chipquik no clean flux

A la perfección

I wanted to use this for professional work, so I called ChipQuik to get some questions answered. Without divulging the name of the manufacturer of the flux itself, be assured that this flux is ROL0 rated. This means that it wont corrode the solder joints over time, like some other more aggressive fluxes will do. Im docking a star because my order didnt come with the pink needle as shown in the picture. The different colors represent different needle diameters, and it is important to size the needle correctly for the size of the surface mount components that you are soldering. Also not shown in the sellers picture is a black rubber cap that locks the handle to the syringe plunger so the handle doesnt fall out every time you let go. Some of my shipments have the cap included, and some do not. See my photo for what I received.

This is a real game changer. I’m a hobbyist and wished I had found this stuff a decade ago. It is easy to use. The plunger was well seated and didn’t fall out like some of the other reviews mentioned. Tip: a dab will do ya. If you wanted to clean up afterward, rubbing alcohol worked great. I highly recommend this item.

Todo se mira bien

Great item just as described!

This stuff is wonderful! ^ Review over. Seriously though this stuff is great to solder with. My only gripe is that when you take the needle like tip off they dont give you anything to put it in.... which can prove to get messy over time. Either have a small plastic cap that covers the needle and it would make a world of difference for storage. Same goes with the plunger itself. They should have a little clip that you can snap the two together so everything stays together. -Nigel

Works great for soldering and holding SMD in place.
