Cobar has announced the launch of 396-DRX, a new VOC-free flux. This RoHS compliant flux fulfils the need for environmentally-friendly materials while maintaining excellent soldering performance.

According to IPC – J-STD-004, Cobar 396-DRX is classified as ORL0. It contains no halides and is based on a water carrying system that will provide advantages in transportation and storage conditions and eliminate fire risks. Operators will also appreciate that it provides an odourless flux solution.

The thermally stable flux offers a wide process window with top-side preheat temperatures of up to 150°C. Due to the strong thermal resistance, this flux can be utilised in a broad range of applications, such as high thermal mass and heavy multilayer products which require extended and high-temperature soldering conditions. The Cobar 396-DRX activation system eliminates bridging and provides excellent through-hole filling for lead-free as well as leaded applications.
