As always ,amazing low melt solder

Definitely helps with chip removal. Be certain to keep PCB rather level; this stuff has a tendency to "flow" more than normal solder and likes to get places other than where you want it. Lower temps much easier on pads.

Pricey but is clutch in my projects. You only need to use very tiny bit and so this little package will last you a very long time. 5 STARS

I have been doing some soldering recently and learned about “low melt solder”. Having never heard of it before I felt like I should give it a shot and review it for everyone.The idea is that you can combine lead-free solder with low melt solder to get components off of a circuit board easier. Lead-free solder has a much higher melting point but is supposed to be safer because, well lead causes cancer. (What doesn’t right?)Does it lower the melting point of the lead-free solder? Maybe. The problem is that you still have to get the lead-free solder hot enough to melt before it will mix with the low melt solder.After they mix together, then they might have a lower melting point next time.I will have to say that this solder does melt at a lower temp by its own, but it’s also not as strong as it’s counterparts. Be careful using this in an area that can get hot as a component might get warm enough to come off the board without you wanting it to.Recommendation: Try it out. It can be useful in the right situations.

Chip Quik is a soldering alloy that melts and stays molten at a very low temperature when applied with heat to tin/lead and no-lead solder, including "no-clean" solders.It is extremely useful in the field where you might not have expensive rework tools. It is extremely good for hobbyists who periodically need to remove multi-pin/connection components from 4-pin DIPs to 512-pin (or larger) SMT components. It works great for larger SMT and thru-hole components, live high power transistors and MOSFETs (I don't think I could use it to remove a BGA (Ball Grid Array).It cleans up really well with solder wick, a glue brush, and an appropriate solvent like water or isopropyl alcohol.A little bit goes a long way.I first started using it more than 25 years ago when a salesman left a sample for me to try.
