Omega Rosin Free Products

A rosin (colophony) free cored solder wire which contains no rosin/resin acids, pine oil or other naturally occurring derivatives from pine trees and has been specifically designed to help reduce the number or world wide cases of industrial asthma, related to rosin usage within a cored solder wire.  Omega is available in all solder alloys, including lead free alloys and in wire gauges from 10swg (3.25mm) to 32swg (0.274mm).  Omega passes the copper mirror corrosion  and surface insulation requirements of Bellcore TR-NWT-000078 and J-STD-004. Omega is available in 3 formulations and varying flux percentages to suit all applications.

Omega Standard Cored Solder Wire

Omega contains no rosin (colophony), resin acids, pine oil or other naturally occurring derivatives from pine trees and has been specifically designed to reduce the number of world-wide cases of industrial asthma, related to rosin usage within a cored solder wire. Omega provides excellent wetting whilst leaving a minimal no clean, clear residue. Cleaning by batch or in-line processes is not suitable, however, if residues need to be removed use Warton Total Clean 200 aerosol cleaner.

Omega Plus Cored Solder Wire 

Omega Plus+ exhibits minimal clear residues and offers an improved flow rate, with an addition of halide activation (performance in-line with the old RMA technology). Omega Plus+ is available as a 3%, 2% and 1% flux content to enable the user to determine between flow rate and acceptable residue levels. Omega Plus+ is rated as an ORL1 in accordance with J-STD-004 and passes the Surface Insulation Resistance and Corrosion requirements of both J-STD-004 and Bellcore GR-78 Core.

  • In an independent test carried out by the Health and Safety Laboratory, the fume produced by Omega was certified as 'rosin free'. Please ask for a copy of the report.
  • Tests carried out on the fume produced by Omega wires showed that greater damage occurs with a rosin fume, to that of a rosin free fume. For full details see Rosin Free Reports.
