Rework tip tunnel for SOIC-14 SMTC series 357 °C - Metcal SMTC-0142
Tunnel-shaped SMTC series rework tip that reflows all 14 leads of a SOIC-14 package at once. The fixed 357 °C tip temperature keeps heat input into the board short and repeatable. Fits the Metcal MX-H1-AVA and MX-RM3E handpieces on MX series systems.

Description
A SOIC-14 can only be removed without pad damage when every lead is molten at the same moment. The SMTC-0142 tunnel tip encloses both rows of leads and works at a tip temperature of 357 °C.
Benefits
- Tunnel geometry for removing and replacing all SOIC-14 leads in one operation
- 357 °C tip temperature, sized for short contact times on temperature sensitive assemblies
- Self-regulating cartridge with integrated heater, no calibration and no temperature setting required
- Tool-free tip change on the MX-H1-AVA and MX-RM3E handpieces
- Repeatable thermal profile even under changing heat load
Applications
Rework and repair of surface mounted assemblies, replacement of faulty SOIC-14 devices in electronics manufacturing, prototyping and service benches, and rework on boards where a hot air process would stress neighbouring components too much.
Compatibility and scope of delivery
The cartridge fits the Metcal MX-H1-AVA and MX-RM3E handpieces and therefore the soldering stations of the MX series. Delivery is one SMTC-0142 rework tip as a single piece, handpiece and station are not included.
