Copper desoldering braid for circuit-board rework

This 10 ft roll of 2.5 mm wide copper braid contains 2 % RMA flux and is intended for removing solder from electronic circuit boards. Technicians and hobbyists use it to replace faulty components, clear solder bridges and clean pads during assembly or repair work.

Oxide-free braid with no-clean residue

The braid is made from 100 % pure copper that is free of impurities and oxides, giving strong capillary action so molten solder is drawn away quickly with less heat. After desoldering it leaves halide-free, non-conductive, non-corrosive residue that does not require cleaning.

Limited to joints the 2.5 mm width can cover

Wider pads, large ground planes or high-mass connectors may need a broader braid or multiple passes to absorb all excess solder. The 10 ft length suits everyday bench use but very high-volume production will consume it faster.

Questions about this item

What width does the 2.5 mm braid suit for typical through-hole pads?

The 2.5 mm width matches standard through-hole pads and small SMD lands, letting the copper braid wick solder cleanly without spanning adjacent tracks.

How much length does the 10 ft spool give for a typical rework session?

Ten feet (3 m) supplies roughly twice the length of standard wicks, so one spool covers many desoldering jobs before replacement.

Does the 2 % RMA flux require cleaning after use on a circuit board?

No, the no-clean, halide-free residue is non-conductive and non-corrosive, leaving the board ready for rework without extra cleaning.
