Balver Zinn Group Releases GPC-R-114 a General Purpose Cleaner
July 1, 2016 | Balver Zinn GroupEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
The Balver Zinn Group a leading manufacturer of solder materials, is pleased to introduce the General Purpose Cleaner GPC-R-114.
The GPC-R-114 cleaning solution is a non-flammable solvent based cleaning liquid that is designed for manual cleaning applications such as PBA and maintenance cleaning. GPC-R-114 dissolves post soldering flux residues and will evaporate quickly without leaving visible residues on the substrates.
The GPC-R-114 is compatible will most materials used in electronic assembly manufacturing and cleaning processes. GPC-R-114 is a non-corrosive cleaning material.
For companies looking for continuous efficiency improvements of their processes the GPC-R-114 is an optimum solution. Operators will appreciate the excellent performance and easy to use spray gun applicator.
