Chemical stripping normally involves the submersion of the substrate in a tank often referred to as a chemical tank and is generally undertaken by one of two methods.
Chemical wire stripping.
Cold strip the most widely used method via a methylene chloride process.
Different abrasive materials are used for different types of insulation.
It is best suited to cutting through the insulation on a regular shaped circular cross section wire.
The mechanical blade is the most widely used tool to strip wires.
The hot weezers and hot nife hand units are part of a highly advanced thermal wire stripping system used in specialized wire stripping applications where stripping a wire or cable with no defect to the conductor is critical.
Products wire and cable strippers chemical wire stripping eraser dip strip chemical pots can remove the insulation from virtually all magnet and enamel wires of all sizes and insulation types including litz wire without damage to the wire.
The dsp series chemical wire strippers from the eraser company can remove the insulation from magnet and enamel wire including litz wire without damage to the wire.
Dsp pots are designed specifically for use with dip strip.
The humble single core wire.
The process is an efficient method to use for complete removal of the insulation resulting in an exposed clean solderable conductor surface.
Dip strip starts as a solid crystal form and melts to a liquid when heated.
Chemical stripping of organic insulation from solid conductors is an alternative to mechanical stripping especially on small gauge 28 ga conductors.
Chemicals are used to dissolve the insulation to expose the metal inside the wire.
Wire preparation chemical stripping.
Remove oxidation and residue with the dip clean 2.
Manual or semi automatic mechanical chemical or thermal wire stripping methods have well known quality assurance problems.
You need to make sure you have the right abrasive material for the job or you can damage the metal inside the wire.
