Interflux

Interflux® Electronics is an international company which has pioneered and
specialised in no-clean solder products. Interflux philosophy is to create fluxes in solder products without bodies such as colophonium, resin, waxes and polyols, because these are the main source of contact problems in electronics. Interflux uses chemicals which can totally evaporate, (when energy is applied) leaving no residue on the PCB.
Interflux is at the forefront of lead free solder technology. Interflux specialises and researches in process and production solutions within the electronics soldering industry. World leading products include solvent and VOC free flux, long tack-time solder paste and solder wire (leaded and leadfree), rework flux, SMT adhesive and a full range of auxilliaries and process control equipment including nitrogen retrofit and spray fluxer systems.

- High dross formation leading to excessive solder consumption
- Dirty PCB's
- Micro bridging

What does it mean for you:
- Up to 50% cost saving in consumption of solder bars
- Double reduction of dross
- Improving quality of solder
- Enhancing solderability

---
