Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• What is the primary material of these blades?
  The blades are made from high-tensile spring steel, offering a balance of flexibility and hardness for prying.
• Are these blades thin enough to fit under a BGA CPU?
  Yes, they are ultra-thin and specifically designed to slide between the BGA balls and the PCB surface.
• Can I use this tool while applying hot air?
  Absolutely. The metal handle and steel blades are heat resistant and designed to work in conjunction with hot air stations.
• Will this tool melt if I use it at 350°C?
  No, the all-metal construction ensures it can withstand standard reflow temperatures without deformation.
• Does the handle get hot during use?
  The metal handle may absorb some heat if exposed to direct hot air for prolonged periods; wearing ESD gloves is recommended.
• Can I replace the blades if they break?
  Yes, the handle features a universal collet that allows you to swap out blades easily.
• Is this tool ESD safe?
  The handle is metal and conductive. While it doesn't generate static, you should ensure you are grounded when touching sensitive components.
• Can this remove black glue (underfill) from iPhones?
  Yes, this is one of the primary uses for this tool—removing the hard black epoxy used in Apple devices.
• Is it suitable for removing glass UV glue?
  Yes, the scraper blade profile is excellent for cleaning residual UV glue from LCD screens.
• How do I prevent scratching the motherboard traces?
  Keep the blade flat against the board surface. Do not dig the tip downwards. Practice on scrap boards first.
• Are the blades flexible or rigid?
  They have a slight flex (springiness) to prevent them from snapping under moderate pressure, which also helps "feel" the pads.
• Can I sharpen these blades?
  These are precision-ground blades. Sharpening is difficult and usually not recommended; replacement is better.
• Does the kit include a storage case?
  Packaging varies, but blades typically come in a protective sleeve or small case to prevent injury.
• What are the 5 different blade shapes for?
  They include shapes for prying, scraping, cutting adhesive, lifting chips, and cleaning pads.
• Is this useful for through-hole components?
  It is less useful for through-hole; it is specialized for Surface Mount Technology (SMT) and BGA.
• Can I use this to cut PCB traces for modification?
  Yes, the sharp knife edge is hard enough to cut copper traces for circuit modifications.
• Does the handle lose its grip over time?
  The knurled metal grip is durable and does not wear out like rubber grips might.
