Electrolube has added two new surface mount adhesive products – ES 808 and ES 807 – to its range of maintenance and service aids.
ES 808 has been specially formulated for the bonding of surface mounted devices to printed circuit boards prior to wave soldering. Where medium to high dispense speeds and high dot profiles are required, ES 808 offers cost saving and ease of use with its cartridge format. The product also has a high wet strength and good electrical characteristics.
ES 807’s performance is more suited for high-speed dispensing (25 000 to 50 000 DPH) rather than ES 808’s suitability for pin transfer and stencil print.
Both products have excellent adhesion to substrate and wet strength and ES 808 is well suited for humidity resistance, whilst ES807 has an outstanding dot profile. With a typical cure temperature of 130°C and 90 second cure time or 60 seconds at 150°C, ES 808 has excellent mechanical strength and long-term stability after the cure cycle. ES 807 works at a slightly different rate of 60 seconds at 150°C.

A cordless ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) wrist strap does not work by grounding the person in the same way as a traditional wired wrist strap. Instead, it works by reducing or balancing the static charge on your body so that you are less likely to discharge electricity into sensitive electronic components.
