Pro-Wick Blue #4 Braid

TechSpray Pro-Wick Blue #4 Braid is a lead-free desoldering braid coated with rosin flux for fast wicking action. It comes on a 10 ft anti-static spool suited for electronics repair and rework. The ROL0 flux classification ensures clean, reliable solder removal. This product is designed for technicians who need efficient desoldering performance.

Standards and interface limits

The braid meets IPC J-STD-004, MIL-F-14256, NASA NHB 5300 4 (34-1), NASA NPC 200-4 and NASA SP5002 specifications for flux and material quality. Rosin flux type ROL0 provides consistent wetting without leaving corrosive residue. The 0.098 in width determines the maximum solder volume it can absorb per pass. Users needing wider coverage must make multiple passes or select a different braid size.

Setup checks before ordering

Verify that the 0.098 in braid width matches the component pitch and pad spacing on your assemblies. Confirm your soldering iron tip can heat the braid effectively for the joints you are reworking. Ensure your workspace handles ESD-sensitive materials since the spool is anti-static but the braid itself is not shielded. Buyers who need a wider braid or a different flux type should look for alternative specifications.
