LOCTITE® GC10 No-Clean & Halogen-free Solder Paste is the first-ever temperature-stable solder paste.
LOCTITE GC 10 remains stable for one year at 26.5°C, and for one month at temperatures of up to 40°C. This provides benefits throughout the logistics and operations chain from shipping/receiving to printing and reflow.
The temperature stability of GC10 delivers exceptional performance attributes such as 24-hour abandon times, stabilized and consistent print transfer efficiency, expansion of the reflow process window, more than 95% on-line paste utilization and significant reductions in solder-related defects. The combined result is higher yields and more cost-effective PCB assembly.
Stencil Life: 16 to 72 hours
On-line stencil stability: 3 days @ 80% RH
Paste stability: 12x over conventional
Elevated temperature stability: 100x over conventional
Excellent coalescence for 0201, 01005 and 0.3mm pitch
After 3 days @ 80% RH, zero dewetting on long soak
Minimal hot slump @ 182°C
Best in class cosmetic appearance for Pb-free solder joints
Exceptional wetting for long, hot reflow profiles
Eliminates end-of-day paste scrapping
Eliminates refrigerated warehouse storage
Eliminates cold pack, dry ice and overnight shipping
