ALPHA® EF-8800HF is a halogen-free, alcohol-based no-clean wave soldering flux specifically designed for standard and thick high-density PCBs in lead-free processes. It exhibits stable performance under high preheat and solder pot temperatures, making it suitable for demanding applications. The flux features a unique activator/rosin package that ensures reliable solder joints with good cosmetics and pin testability. It demonstrates low bridging on bottom side QFPs and excels in hole-fill and solderballing performance. The residue left after soldering is tack-free, enhancing post-soldering cosmetics. With a solids content of 6.0% and a flash point of 17°C, it is recommended for use with specific application parameters to optimize results. The product meets IPC J-STD-004B ORL0 classification, indicating its low halogen content and environmental friendliness.
A halogen-free, high-reliability, mid-solids, alcohol-based, no-clean wave soldering flux for standard & thick board applications.
Product Overview
ALPHA EF-8800HF is a mid-solids, alcohol-based flux designed for both standard and thicker, high-density PCBs in leaded and lead-free processes.
With special thermally stable activators in its formulation, this flux shows stable performance across different preheating temperatures and dwell times. It delivers exceptional hole-fill even under prolonged exposure to higher preheat and solder pot temperatures, reducing bridging on bottom-side QFPs, while also providing superior performance in hole fill and solder balling.
Additionally, ALPHA EF-8800HF offers good lead-free solder joint cosmetics with evenly spread, tack-free residue, reducing defects during pin testing.
