Desoldering Braid Solder Wick 25 ft Roll 2.5 mm (0.10 inch) RMA #4 Blue
RMA Super Wick #4 Blue Solder Wick
Professional Solder Wick for Fast, Controlled Desoldering
RMA Super Wick #4 Blue solder wick is a professional-grade desoldering braid designed for rapid solder removal during circuit board repair, electronics servicing, and production rework. The tightly woven, oxide-free, high-purity copper braid is pre-coated with RMA rosin mildly activated flux to provide fast wicking action with minimal contact time.
This #4 desoldering braid measures 2.5 mm (0.10 inch) wide, making it suitable for cleaning PCB pads, removing excess solder, correcting solder bridges, and repairing through-hole or surface mount connections. Its blue spool provides quick identification within a color-coded wick width series.
High-Purity Copper Desoldering Braid
The tightly controlled copper weave promotes efficient capillary action, drawing molten solder away from the work area quickly and evenly. Precise, localized heat transfer helps reduce thermal stress on sensitive components and PCB pads compared with broader heating methods such as hot air or vacuum rework.
Fast solder absorption also helps minimize iron dwell time, reducing the risk of lifted pads, damaged traces, and overheated components. This makes the copper solder wick a reliable choice for professional electronics technicians, repair benches, engineering labs, and circuit board rework stations.
RMA Flux Solder Wick for PCB Rework
The braid is pre-coated with RMA flux, eliminating the need to apply flux separately for many common rework tasks. Its flux classification meets ANSI/IPC J-STD-004 type ROL0, indicating rosin-based, low-activity flux with low halide content.
Typical applications for this PCB solder wick include:
- Cleaning solder from circuit board pads
- Removing excess solder from component leads
- Correcting solder bridges and shorts
- Preparing pads for replacement components
- Through-hole component removal and repair
- Surface mount touch-up and rework
- Benchtop electronics servicing
- General circuit board repair and maintenance
25 ft Solder Removal Braid for Service Benches
The 25 ft (7.5 m) roll provides substantially more solder removal braid than common 5 ft rolls, reducing replacement frequency during regular repair and production work. It is supplied on a non-ESD spool and is ideal for general benchtop use where a larger supply of desoldering wick is preferred.
For best results, place the braid over the solder joint and apply a properly heated soldering iron tip to the top of the braid. Once the molten solder has wicked into the copper, lift the iron and braid from the connection together. Trim and discard the used portion before continuing.
