CAIG Rosin Soldering Flux, Type RSF-R80. Made in U.S.A.
For electrical and electronic soldering
RSF Rosin Flux is a mildly-activated rosin flux that is considerably more active than water-white rosin. Although its activity closely approaches that of fully activated rosins, it still conforms to all of the requirements of Type RMA (Rosin Core, Mildly Activated) of Federal Speciation QQ-S-571. The RSF paste ux meets DOD-STD-2000 & also the IPC-J-004 standard for type ROL0 , the lowest residue corrosivity category. Thermal stability enabling excellent wetting and reduced carbonization at soldering temperatures. The active ingredients in RSF-R80 are non-ionic and non-conductive even in the presence of moisture. Like rosin, it becomes active only at elevated temperatures, reverting to an inactive state at room temperature. It is recommended for all applications where post-soldering cleaning is not feasible, and the residue must be highly insulating. RSF-R80 Rosin Flux is MADE IN USA.

Very pleased with this; A dip in this makes solder wick easily into stranded wire when tinning, leaving a well-tinned but not overly saturated wire ready for soldering into terminals.Wire does need a proper cleaning following use as it can be sticky. Also, I may consider purchasing the no-clean formula but I still highly recommend.Lastly, I’ve written to Craig with support questions on other products offered and they’ve been very helpful. A trustworthy brand.

I've never previously used products like then when soldering wires. As a result, I've had difficulty getting the solder to stick to my targets: the solder just beads up on the tip of my soldering iron and it takes repeated attempts to get the solder to go where I want it to go. With this product, when I apply the solder wire to the tip of my iron and hold it close the the wires that I want to solder, the solder flows easily onto my targets. What a savings in effort and time. I'm sure people that use this product probably wonder why I haven't been up to speed. Be advised that this product is specific for soldering electronic things. You cannot and must not use the common flux that is used for soldering pipes.

Fluxes very well. Much better than the pale acid free ones

I co-worker tipped me off to this stuff. The main attraction is how the flux is gelled, such that great precision can be employed to get the flux exactly where it's need when attaching surface mount parts. Anyone who's used liquid flux for rework will know exactly what the problem is.We like to keep the foil seal on the product's cup, dipping a pointed swab stem into the gel through a hole in the foil, and then touching the SMD pad needing the flux.

Nice flux paste, does the job very well. Quite goopy and needs alcohol to wash off but works fine. Works great as a tip cleaner also. One thing is the picture on the listing says "deoxit" brand and when I received it says "caig". I feel a bit mislead there but nevertheless it is decent flux paste.

Excelente pasta para soldar. El unico detalle es que se debe controlar muy bien la temperatura para evitar que se queme la pasta (queda como plastico una vez que se quema). Yo la emplee para soldar cables de cobre chapados en plata con soldadura libre plomo y me funciono muy bien.

This solder doesn't seam to like lead free solder. I tried to solder with lead free and this flux barley works when heated properly. It creates black tarnish and carbon flakes. Doesn't remove anything, and make a layer of goo in which the solder won't make a bond with the copper because it repels it like hydrophobic materials. And I can't solder to aluminum or other conductive metals either. The only thing it is good at is cleaning my iron.
