FLUXAK 1028 - Soldering flux for cast-on-strap (COS) process

FLUXAK 1028 flux is a multi-purpose water-based flux formulated from the synthesis of acids and amines. Due to its free acidity, this flux has excellent ‘pickling’ power or activity. This flux is eliminated by sublimation in the range of temperatures where lead and alloys used for battery manufacturing melt. Since no residual salts or combustion residues remain after soldering (casting), problems linked to conductivity (self-discharge) and corrosion are solved when using this technology. As stated it is without combustion residues, the pieces remain in their original state and the flux does not pollute the welding or tinning baths.

PRODUCT APPLICATION

The organic Fluxak 1028 is intended for the manufacturing of batteries on automatic lines (COS process). This flux can be used over a range of temperatures from 350°C to 500°C. It is totally eliminated when dipping the lugs in the tinning or soldering bath.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Fluxak 1028 can be used undiluted or it can be diluted with water depending on the state of the lugs (oxidised or dirty).

USING CARE AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Without particular risk Refer to health and safety datasheets before use
