Wave Soldering
 

The ability to retain its mechanical properties at elevated temperatures 
has enabled Durostone^® to perform to the highest standards in the 
wave soldering process without distortion. With a short term operating 
temperature of 350ºC and a continuous operating temperature of 260ºC, 
Durostone^® can withstand the rigors of the soldering process without 
delaminating. In particular, selective wave soldering where it has proven
itself time and time again.
 

Wave Solder Carrier (Gold Finger masking)

Durostone^® materials can improve the efficiency of the
wave soldering process by,

• Eliminating the need for hand masking, such as gold finger contacts.

• Masking bottom-side SMT components enabling selective soldering
  using standard wave soldering equipment.

• Preventing bowing of the PCB.

• Standardizing production line widths.

• Increasing throughput using multi-aperture fixtures.

• Preventing flooding of the solder over the top of the PCB.
