YCS 5515 Desoldering Wick (5pcs Roll) Price in Pakistan

Every board repair ends the same way: you lift a part, and the pads underneath carry leftover solder that stops the new component from sitting flat, and the YCS 5515 Desoldering Wick (5pcs Roll) handles exactly that cleanup step on your bench. The braid works through capillary action, so when you lay it on a joint and press a hot iron tip on top, molten tin travels up into the woven copper strands and leaves the pad clean. This step sits right in the middle of the mobile phone repair workflow, between removal with a hot air station and fitting the new part with your soldering station. Think about a typical dead phone that lands on your counter with a charging issue. You trace the fault with a multimeter, find a shorted charging IC, pull it off with hot air, and then face a messy footprint full of uneven solder. One pass of wick across those pads gives you a flat, even surface, so the replacement IC seats correctly and every ball makes contact. Skip this step and you risk a dry joint that brings the same phone back to your shop a week later. The same logic applies to PMIC swaps on a phone stuck on hang on logo, to audio IC work, and to network IC jobs where fine-pitch pads leave no room for sloppy cleanup. For reballing, the wick plays an even bigger role. Before you place a stencil from your reballing kit, both the chip and the board need clean, level pads, and a controlled pass with wick removes old balls without dragging pads off the PCB. Hold the board in a PCB holder, apply a thin layer of flux, lay the braid flat, and let heat do the work instead of pressure, because pushing hard on a mobile motherboard can tear a pad and turn a simple job into a jumper wire repair. A quick look under a microscope before you place the new part saves you from surprises on the first power-up. Solder bridges create another daily headache. When you reflow a connector or a small IC and two pins join together, a light touch of wick on the bridge pulls away the extra tin and separates the pins in seconds. Display connector repairs, battery connector replacements, and charging port jobs all produce this kind of bridge, especially on crowded boards where pin spacing stays tight. Memory work follows the same pattern. Before you mount a chip on a UFS adapter or an eMMC programmer socket, and before you solder wires to ISP points from an ISP pinout diagram, you want clean pads so your test box reads the chip reliably. Clean pads mean fewer failed reads and less time chasing a hardware fault that turns out to be leftover solder. The five-roll pack suits how Pakistani repair shops actually run. A single roll disappears fast on a busy day, and every used end you cut off leaves you with less braid. With five rolls, you keep one at each bench position and spares in the drawer, so your team never pauses a job for a missing consumable. A few habits help you get more out of every roll: cut away the used section after each job so fresh braid always touches the joint, add flux when a joint looks dull or oxidised, set your iron temperature to suit the solder on the board, and draw the braid along the pads instead of rubbing back and forth. Keep your fingers on the spool and away from the heated end, because copper carries heat quickly. From a small counter shop to a full service center, this wick earns its place as a basic consumable that protects the quality of every IC-level repair you do.
