FL250D
No-Clean Solder Paste
Product Description
Kester
FL250D
is a no-clean, air or nitrogen
reflowable, solder paste specifically designed for
automotive requirements. FL250D is compatible
with post-soldering process chemicals, including
conformal coatings and potting compounds.
FL250D is capable of stencil printing downtimes of
up to 90 minutes with an effective first print at 20
mils. FL250D also has the capability of printing up
to 200 mm/sec (8in/sec) with squeegees or within
an enclosed head.
• Excellent residue characteristics that are
completely compatible with conformal coating
and potting processes
• High print speeds to 200 mm/sec (8 in/sec)
• Compatible with 0201 technology
• Excellent printing characteristics to 0.4mm
(16-mil) pitch with Type 3 powder
• Excellent wetting on a variety of substrates,
including OSPs
• Capable of 90 minute break times in printing
• Stencil life: 8+ hours (process dependent)
• Scrap is reduced due to less paste dry out
• Stable tack over 8+ hours
• Classified as ROL0 per J-STD-004
• Compliant to Bellcore GR-78 (uncleaned)
• Compatible with DEK ProFlow™ and MPM
RheoPump™ enclosed print head systems

Application Notes
Availability:
Kester FL250D is available in the Sn63Pb37 and Sn62Pb36Ag02 alloys with Type 3 powder. Type 3 powder
mesh is recommended, but different powder particle size distributions are available for standard and fine
pitch applications. For specific packaging information see Kester's Solder Paste Packaging Chart for available
sizes. The appropriate combination depends on process variables and the specific application.

Kester Reflow Profile
Alloy: Sn63Pb37 or Sn62Pb36Ag02
Recommended Reflow Profile:
240
The recommended reflow profile for FL250D made with
Sn63Pb37 and Sn62Pb36Ag02 alloys is shown here.
This profile is simply a guideline. Since FL250D is a
highly active solderpaste, it can solder effectively over
a wide range of profiles. Your optimal profile may be
different from the one shown based on you oven, board
and mix of defects. Please contact Kester if you need
additional profiling advice.

Cleaning:
Time (sec.)
FL250D is a no-clean formula. The residues do not need to be removed for typical applications. Although
FL250D is designed for no-clean applications, its residues can be easily removed using automated cleaning
equipment (in-line or batch) with a variety of readily available cleaning agents. Call Kester Technical Support
for details.
Storage, Handling, and Shelf Life:
Refrigeration is the recommended optimum storage condition for solderpaste to maintain consistent viscosity,
reflow characteristics and overall performance. FL250D should be stabilized at room temperature prior to
printing. FL250D should be kept at standard refrigeration conditions, 0-10°C (32-50°F). Please contact
Kester if you require additional advice with regard storage and handling of this material. Shelf life is 4 months
from date of manufacture when handled properly and held at 0-10°C (32-50°F).
Health & Safety:
This product, during handling or use, may be hazardous to health or the environment. Read the Material
Safety Data Sheet and warning label before using this product.
