MottWick 2.0mm Desoldering Wire / Solder Braid (Model: MT-2015)

Description

MottWick 2.0mm Desoldering Wire / Solder Braid (Model: MT-2015)

Product Overview

The MottWick Desoldering Wire (Model: MT-2015) is a highly efficient, professional-grade solder removal braid engineered to quickly and cleanly extract excess solder and residue from printed circuit boards (PCBs) and electrical terminals. Manufactured from high-quality, fine copper wire woven into a tight geometric braid, this tool utilizes strong capillary action to draw up molten solder the moment heat is applied.

Housed in a compact, protective plastic dispenser spool, the wire is kept free from oxidation, moisture, and skin oils, ensuring maximum wicking performance. With a precise 2.0mm width and a generous 1.5-meter length, it provides the perfect balance of thermal mass and precision, making it an indispensable consumable for intricate surface-mount device (SMD) rework, through-hole component desoldering, and general circuit board repair.

Key Features

• Rapid Solder Extraction: Expertly woven to maximize capillary action, ensuring that molten solder is instantly and safely drawn up into the braid, preventing overheating of delicate circuit board pads.

• Precision 2.0mm Width: The ideal gauge for general-purpose electronics work, narrow enough to clean between dense IC pins without bridging, yet wide enough to clear standard through-hole component pads efficiently.

• Generous 1.5m Dispenser Spool: Packaged in a thumb-wheel style plastic housing that prevents tangling and protects the copper braid from environmental oxidation, extending the shelf-life and efficacy of the flux.

• Residue-Free Clean Up: Designed to leave minimal flux residue on the board after extraction, saving time during the final PCB cleaning and inspection phases.

• Thermally Efficient: High-conductivity copper construction ensures rapid heat transfer from the soldering iron tip through the braid, minimizing the dwell time required on sensitive electronic components.

Technical Specifications

Applications

The essential rework and repair consumable for electronics technicians, engineers, and hobbyists:

• Component Desoldering & Replacement: Safely extracting through-hole resistors, capacitors, and discrete semiconductors from PCBs without lifting or damaging the copper pads.

• Solder Bridge Clearing: Quickly mopping up accidental solder shorts between fine-pitch pins on integrated circuits (ICs) and microcontrollers.

• Surface Mount (SMD) Pad Prep: Flattening and cleaning residual solder from surface mount pads to prepare a perfectly level surface for installing new components.

• Terminal Cleaning: Removing old, oxidized solder from wire terminals, switches, and connector lugs prior to re-soldering fresh connections.
