Liquid Flux Selector Kit

When you select your wire or ribbon kit you have a choice of 5 of the following flux types:

Indalloy Flux Effective Temperature Range Clean Residue In
1 100 - 338°C Water
2 100 - 371°C Water
3 96 - 343°C Water
4 OA 100 - 250°C Water
5RA 125 - 350°C IPA
5RMA 125 - 350°C IPA
5R 125 - 350°C IPA

Below is a chart to help you choose the correct fluxes:
