Your cart is empty.The heart of the kit is a length of Fast Chip low temperature Removal alloy. This alloy is like a solder that melts at temperatures well below that of normal solder (136°F) and stays liquid long enough to melt the existing solder, allowing you time to carefully remove the component. Simply apply a liberal amount of the included flux to the pins of the chip that you want to remove, then use a soldering iron with a flat-edge tip to heat the pins while applying the low temperature alloy. The alloy will remain liquid for a few seconds while you coat all of the connections, once you've coated the pins you should be able to lift the chip free using tweezers or a hemostat. Clean the pads thoroughly and apply fresh solder and you're ready to solder a new part in place.

Low melt solder works very well.The included flux is not great and burns easily.

If you need a lot of stuff for this though, get the bigger count cuz it is quite a small amount. Good for the price

This low-temp alloy was perfect for removing a large LQFP 100-pin STM32 IC from a PCB. The flux and alloy melted very easily and flowed perfectly onto the legs. Once the legs on all 4 sides were saturated in the solder, I used my heat gun at a low setting and the chip came right off! By far the easiest desoldering I've ever done for such a large chip. I will be using this for any future repair jobs as this increases the survivability of the board, pads, and surrounding components by reducing the melting point significantly.

I was desoldering 3 joycon modules off 3 Nintendo Switch Pro Controllers.I started with adding fresh solder to the old solder to get it to melt but it was so stubborn and would not come off! The pinholes would always have a little leftover solder in them and I couldn't get the modules out.Fastchip bonded with the residual solder and left the pinholes CLEAN. I had to reapply a few times but it it was a lot quicker than constantly adding fresh solder. I highly recommend this stuff!Seriously, after the first joystick module I removed , I used fastchip again and it made the process much better. If I ever need to desolder again, i'll be grabbing some more of this stuff.

So as someone that repairs controllers, I have been looking for a simpler solution to remove joystick modules from said controllers and after trying many different things, this is by far one of the easiest ways to Desolder any kind of components from pcb boards that I have found besides a vacuum powered solder gun. Melts at low temp and stays molten for a pretty long while after u take the iron off of it. Amazed this isn’t talked about more in the solder world as it is wonderful and highly recommend

Buy more you are going to need it. It works great I used it to remove HDMI ports and it prevents damage. It's really a must have for removing temperature sensitive components. You need a lot to prevent damage traces and you will need to remove it after.Note: this is not for soldering it to remove components. Do not leave this on clean it off completely.

I use this stuff to desolder hard to heat places, such as headphone jacks with plastic all around it, no way to do it with hot air without melting it. This stuff is magic. No complaints

I ordered 2 of these Low Melt Solder packages and all I really need is the solder itself, the flux just being a bonus. Unfortunately, it seems like someone at the factory was in a hurry when they were sealing the bottom of the flux tubes because it looks like one of them split open as soon as it was boxed. How it didn't melt all over the inside of the packaging is beyond me (it's 95°F at my house right now). I have my own preferred brand of flux, so it's not a big deal, but it sux knowing that this flux was no doubt included in the price of the item. Not sure how long these have been sitting on a shelf somewhere, but the solder is much more brittle than the last one I ordered. As soon as I tried straightening each piece, they just snapped in half. I may have just gotten a bad batch.

I had some sockets and components to remove from a non-functional motherboard and this helped so much with it, added a little to each pad, then used hot air to remove the component quickly without overheating anything. The low melt helped with the factory lead-free solder and made this a much easier job.
