Technical Information
Zip-Chem Sur-Prep 5673 is a contact cleaner and defluxer specifically formulated for removing solder flux residue from PCBs and electronic assemblies in addition to general contact cleaning. Defluxing is a critical step in electronics manufacturing and repair — residual solder flux left on PCBs can cause electrochemical migration, corrosion, and eventual circuit failure if not removed. Sur-Prep 5673 effectively dissolves both rosin and no-clean flux residues while also cleaning oils and contamination from electrical contacts and connectors. It is widely used in aerospace electronics manufacturing, military electronics repair, and precision electronics assembly where clean, flux-free PCBs are required for reliability.
Why Choose Zip-Chem Sur-Prep 5673?
- Contact Cleaner + Defluxer Dual Function — Removes both solder flux and contact contamination in one product
- Rosin & No-Clean Flux Removal — Effectively cleans both flux types from PCB assemblies
- Aerospace Electronics Grade — Trusted for aerospace and military electronics manufacturing use
- Fast Evaporating Formula — Rapid drying leaves PCBs clean and ready for inspection or conformal coating
- 12 oz Aerosol Precision Spray — Extension tube for targeted flux removal from PCB solder joints
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is Zip-Chem Sur-Prep 5673 used for?
A: Zip-Chem Sur-Prep 5673 is used for removing solder flux residue from PCBs and electronic assemblies (defluxing) and for cleaning electrical contacts and connectors in aerospace electronics manufacturing, military repair, and precision electronics assembly.
Q: What is the MPN for Zip-Chem Sur-Prep 5673 12 oz Aerosol?
