MG Chemicals 426 Desoldering Braid #4 Fine Braid Super Wick with RMA Flux, 5' Length x 0.1" Width, Blue

Works great! It quickly wicks up excess solder from the pads and leaves minimal residue behind for clean-up.

It works perfect. Good size and easy to use.

Picks up solder like a sponge and keeps it in the wick. Perfect for de-soldering parts from a pc board, as long as the parts are thru-hole. kind of wide for small diameter closely spaced parts. It works fairly well when i trim the wick to a wedge shape at 45 degrees. takes some practice to get it right but it will pick up the solder. Narrow tips on soldering iron work best when you turn up the heat and get in and off the part as quickly as possisble. Again, someone with de-soldering experience should have no problems.

Works to desolder, as expected. Nice condensed package that stores it well, when not in use.

As someone who has been involved in electronics repair and DIY projects for years, I've had my fair share of desoldering tools and aids. However, the MG Chemicals 426 Desoldering Braid has outshined them all and has become a staple in my toolkit. This product isn't just any desoldering braid; it's a game-changer for several reasons. First off, the #4 Fine Braid is exceptionally well-made. It's thin enough for precision work on densely packed PCBs yet strong enough to wick away solder efficiently without breaking apart. This balance is hard to find, and MG Chemicals has nailed it with this product. The inclusion of RMA Flux is another standout feature. It significantly enhances the wicking action, making desoldering not just faster but also cleaner. The flux ensures that the braid picks up almost all the solder in one go, reducing the need for multiple attempts and minimizing the risk of lifting pads or damaging the board. It's a detail that might be overlooked by beginners, but experienced users will appreciate the difference it makes. Using the MG Chemicals 426 Desoldering Braid has been a breeze. It heats up quickly, absorbs solder effectively, and leaves behind minimal residue, making cleanup a lot easier. Whether I'm working on removing components from vintage radios or fixing modern electronics, this braid has handled everything I've thrown at it with ease.

Fantastic stuff. Best way to use it is to cut off small pieces so the coil doesn't wick heat away from the joint being reworked.

Works well, not much residue.

This is by far the best wick if your using a Chinese soldering iron. Was using Hakko and chemtronics but it took forever to heat cause it’s on the thicker side. I was using 63/37 leaded solder.

Great quality and value de-soldering braid with RMA flux. Seems work and to wick solder better than cheaper "no name" versions of this product, leaving clean circuit board pads. I would recommend and purchase again Delivery was very fast and well packaged.

J'avais de la vieille tresse à déssouder qui ne marchait plus du tout (oxydée ? produit additif évaporé ?). Avec cette tresse là, j'ai re-découvert que la tresse à dessouder, ça fonctionne très bien.

Facile da utilizzare e assorbe facilmente lo stagno, un pò alto il prezzo rispetto alla quantità di prodotto.

Tutto perfetto grazie, consigliatissimo.

Works well when using proper technique (lockup for ur joint type)
