Chemtronics Max-Kleen Tri-V
Max-Kleen™ Tri-V is an extra-strength, nonflammable heavy-duty electronics cleaner and an excellent replacement for n-propyl bromide. It removes all types of soils from circuits, contacts, relays, switches, and fuse blocks, along with oils, greases, silicones, and other common industrial contaminants. It’s a good fit for repair and maintenance cleaning.
It also cleans medical instruments and orthopedic implants and works as a carrier fluid for silicone-based lubricant coatings. Because it’s a true azeotrope, it keeps the same composition in liquid and vapor phases, so performance doesn’t drift over time or through reclamation. Specifications it meets include Airbus UK ABR 9-0140, Boeing BSS7432, GE SM2369-10, report #Q40358, the GE 70-16-80 Hot Corrosion Test, and the ARP1755B Stock Loss Test.
Features and Highlights
- Removes tough soils, including oxidized oil and grease
- Dielectric strength of more than 30 kV (liquid)
- Nonflammable and has no flash point
- Stabilized for metals, noncorrosive, and leaves no residue
- NSF registered nonfood compound, codes K1 and K2

Chemtronics CircuitWorks Conductive Pens
CircuitWorks® Conductive Pens draw highly conductive silver traces that dry quickly and bond well to a wide range of electronic materials. Engineers, repair technicians, and manufacturers use them in prototyping, rework, and repair to connect components, fix defective traces, and add jumpers.
Its valve pen tip makes application simple, and the traces air-dry at room temperature and can be soldered at low heat settings. Choose silver ink in standard or micro tips (CW2200STP, CW2200MTP), Silver Flex ink for flexible PCBs (CW2900), or budget-friendly nickel ink (CW2000).
Features and Highlights
- Conductive silver traces form fast
- Valve pen tip simplifies application
- Solderable at low heat settings
- Air-dries quickly at room temperature
- Options for fine and wide lines

Chemask Peelable Solder Mask
Chemask® Peelable Solder Mask is a fast-curing temporary mask made from natural latex and high-temperature resistant compounds. It protects component-free zones during wave soldering, including pins, posts, contacts, and edge connections.
It also works as a protective mask during the conformal coating process.
Features and Highlights
- Dries tack-free in 30 minutes
- Easy removal by peeling off the dried mask
- Compatible with flux systems and stable with cleaning solvents
- Natural latex with superior strength and elongation
- Stretches to five times its cured length without breaking

Chemtronics IPA Wipes and Refills
Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) Wipes from Chemtronics come presaturated with ultra-pure Electronics Grade IPA in a convenient dispenser. They remove solder paste, inks, and other contaminants.
They’re especially effective for touch-up cleaning of automatic printer stencils and thorough cleaning of semi-automatic printer stencils, both during and at the end of production runs. Choose C-fold wipes in a dispensing box or a pull-through tub.
Features and Highlights
- Ultra-pure mixture of IPA and deionized water
- Strong wipes that won’t tear, shred, unravel, or lint
- Stands up to rigorous scrubbing
- Lint-free, precut IPA100B wipes for fine pitch stencils
- Plastic safe

Chemtronics Konform Conformal Coating
Konform conformal coatings shield printed circuit boards, flex circuitry, and components from damage. You can apply them by spray, dip tank, or brush, and they’re used in aerospace, marine manufacturing, electrical equipment, and data communication. They have excellent electrical insulation properties and resist hot and cold operating environments, thermal shock, mold, and fungus. They’re transparent, resist fragmenting, chipping, and cracking, and come ready to use out of the box with no mixing.
Every Konform coating includes a UV indicator for quality inspection and is tested to the IPC-CC-830 standard for compatibility with sensitive electronics. Both the AR and SR categories qualify for ULT746E. There are two resin categories. Acrylic resin (AR) coatings balance fair elasticity with general protection and are known for high dielectric strength, abrasion resistance, and easy removal. Silicone resin (SR) coatings protect across a wide temperature range and add strong chemical and salt spray resistance, though removal may take specialized solvents and a longer soak.
Konform Coatings

Konform SR-X Silicone Conformal Coating
One-part, clear, low VOC silicone coating with moisture, corrosion, and abrasion resistance. It’s an alternative to Dow Corning 1-2577 and 1-2620 conformal coatings, and it cures quickly with ambient moisture and humidity.
- -76°F to 392°F range
- 720 volts/mil dielectric
- Repels dirt and dust
- Low VOC and HAPs free
- UV indicator for QC

Konform AR Acrylic Conformal Coating
UL-certified acrylic coating that insulates against high-voltage arcing and corona shorts. It guards printed circuit boards and electronic assemblies against humidity, salt, corrosive vapors, and fungus.
- -75°F to 279°F range
- 8300 volts/mil dielectric
- IPC-CC-830A and RoHS
- Strong acid resistance

Chemtronics Soder-Wick Desoldering Wick
Soder-Wick is the world’s leading brand of desoldering wick, also called solder wick or desoldering braid. It cuts rework and repair time and lowers the risk of heat damage to the board. Its geometrically precise weave gives maximum capillary action and solder capacity. The lighter-mass, pure copper braid moves heat into the solder joint efficiently, even at low temperatures, and responds faster than conventional braids, which limits overheating and PCB damage. Minimal flux residue speeds up cleaning or removes the need for it.
Soder-Wick comes in a wide variety of widths, lengths, and flux types. All four types below meet MIL-F-14256 F, NASA-STD-8739.3 (Soldered Electrical Connections), DOD-STD-883E Method 2022, and ANSI/IPC J STD-004. The lead-free, no clean, and rosin types are Type ROL0.
Soder-Wick Safety Data Sheets
Soder-Wick Types

Soder-Wick Lead-Free Desoldering Wick
No-clean flux coated wick for thermally sensitive components, built to remove today’s high-temperature lead-free solders. Its single layer weave is lighter in mass than any other wick, so it removes lead-free solder at lower temperatures with less contact time.
- Fast heat transfer
- Also for tin/lead solder
- High purity no-clean flux
- No ionic contamination
- RoHS compliant

Soder-Wick No Clean Desoldering Wick
No-clean flux coated wick that leaves no ionic residue. Pure, oxygen-free copper braid and a patented flux technology give fast, safe desoldering without harmful flux residue.

- Up to 40% faster wicking
- Meets Bellcore specs
- Meets MIL-STD-883B

Soder-Wick Rosin Flux Desoldering Wick
Rosin flux coated wick with the fastest wicking action. Rosin leaves residues that should be removed with a flux remover, and Flux-Off Rosin flux remover is a good choice for that step.
- Pure Type R rosin flux
- Less risk of heat damage
- No ionic contamination
- Meets MIL-F-14256 F

Soder-Wick Unfluxed Desoldering Wick
Unfluxed wick you can coat with any flux type, so you can keep your specified flux constant throughout the production process.
