LOCTITE GC 10 and LOCTITE GC 3W

The key benefit to LOCTITE GC 10 is its stability. It is stable at the most extreme temperatures for extended lengths of time, yet still offers unmatched batch-to-batch consistency.

LOCTITE GC 10 offers stability at room temperature which means lower costs for transport and storage, as well as easier handling. Elimination of cold storage requirements improves logistics efficiency and reduces shipping and warehousing costs. On the production line, no thaw period is required, allowing for immediate start-up.

LOCTITE GC 10’s year-long stability cuts energy consumption and reduces waste by eliminating the need to transport or store the solder paste in refrigerated conditions.

With LOCTITE GC 10, you can expect exceptional on-line paste utilization and the elimination of end-of-day paste scrapping; refrigerated pre-production and warehouse storage; and cold pack, dry ice and overnight shipping.

LOCTITE GC 10's superb coalescence in air on 0201, 01005 and 0.03 mm CSP components eliminates the requirement for nitrogen reflow, does away with numerous defects and promotes better wetting for solder joint reliability. The material has shown zero dewetting on a long hot soak profile, with minimal hot slump at 182°C. When compared to other well-known industry solder pastes, LOCTITE GC 10 exhibits enviable reflow performance.

When it comes to printing performance, there is simply nothing better than LOCTITE GC 10. Impartial third-party testing has confirmed LOCTITE GC 10's ability to provide the absolute best paste transfer efficiency and paste-on-pad material volumes for challenging, miniaturized component types. Plus, exceptionally long abandon times of up to 24 hours, a staggering stencil life of up to 72 hours and zero start-up time deliver ease-of-use, higher yields and improved profitability.

Not only does LOCTITE GC 10 deliver proven, superior printing and reflow performance, it’s also the industry’s most cost-effective solder paste across the entire transport, production and operating lifecycle. The game-changing material saves on shipping, on storage, on scrap, on defect rates, on nitrogen use and on NPI qualifications.
