Desoldering pump

   The desoldering pump is a spring-loaded, handheld tool designed to create a high-pressure vacuum. It typically features a cylinder with a plunger and a heat-resistant nozzle. When the plunger is compressed and the release button is pressed, the spring rapidly pulls the piston back, sucking liquid solder into the internal chamber. This allows for a clean removal of parts without damaging the delicate pads of a Printed Circuit Board (PCB).

• High Suction Power: Efficiently pulls molten solder in a single stroke, leaving holes clear for new components.

• Heat-Resistant Nozzle: Usually made of Teflon or silicone to withstand direct contact with a hot soldering iron.

• One-Handed Operation: Designed with an ergonomic grip and a thumb-trigger for easy use while holding a soldering iron in the other hand.

• Self-Cleaning Shaft: Many models include a plunger pin that automatically clears the nozzle of debris each time it is loaded.

• Durable Build: Often constructed with a high-impact plastic body for long-term reliability.

• Easy Maintenance: The body can be twisted open to empty accumulated solder flakes and lubricate the internal O-ring.
