Rework tip hook long 30° 5.1 x 15.24 mm - Metcal SMTC-8172

Ceramic substrates and solid ground planes pull heat away so fast that standard tips drop out at the joint. The Metcal SMTC-8172 is a hook rework cartridge with 5.1 mm tip width, 15.24 mm length, a bent 30° geometry and a 485 °C working temperature.

Benefits

• 485 °C temperature step for ceramics and high thermal demand
• Hook shape for drag soldering along complete rows of pins
• Bent long body for access between tall components
• 5.1 mm width for solid thermal coupling to large pads

Applications

Rework on surface-mounted parts on ceramic and multilayer assemblies, drag soldering of fine-pitch rows, work on connectors and shielding frames.

Compatibility and scope of delivery

Fits the MX-H1-AVA and MX-RM3E handpieces of the Metcal MX series. Scope of delivery: one SMTC-8172 rework cartridge.
