Copper desoldering braid for electronics rework

Removing solder cleanly is just as important as applying it when you are reworking circuit boards, replacing components or correcting bridged joints. This Facom desoldering braid uses finely woven copper strands that wick molten solder away from pads and pins through capillary action, leaving a clean surface ready for fresh solder or component replacement.

The 1.6 m length provides enough material for multiple rework sessions, making it a practical consumable to keep alongside your soldering station. Copper braid works well on through-hole joints, surface mount rework and cleaning up excess solder from connectors and terminal strips.

Unlike mechanical desoldering pumps, braid makes no contact force on the PCB, reducing the risk of lifted pads or damaged traces on delicate boards. Simply press the braid onto the joint with the iron tip, let the solder flow into the copper weave and trim the used section away. Whether you are maintaining industrial control boards, repairing consumer electronics or prototyping new designs, desoldering braid delivers controlled, damage-free solder removal every time.
