Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• What is the primary use of this blade set?
  It is designed for removing glued ICs (CPU, NAND, Wi-Fi chips) from motherboards and cleaning residual underfill glue.
• Are the blades flexible or rigid?
  They are made of spring steel, offering high flexibility to bend under chips without snapping, yet returning to their original shape.
• Can I use this without a hot air gun?
  No. You must heat the component to soften the glue/solder. Using this cold will rip pads off the motherboard.
• Is this suitable for iPhone CPU removal?
  Yes, the ultra-thin blades are specifically shaped to handle the tight tolerances of iPhone A-series processors.
• Will these blades rust?
  They are made of steel. While polished, they should be kept dry. Wiping them with isopropyl alcohol after use is recommended.
• Can I sharpen these blades?
  These are micro-polished blades. Sharpening them manually is difficult and may ruin the factory edge profile.
• Is the handle compatible with other blade brands?
  The handle uses a standard screw-clamp mechanism, but it is guaranteed to fit the included 8 blades. Compatibility with other brands varies.
• How thin are the blades?
  The tips are ground to less than 0.1mm to ensure they can slide between the BGA balls and the PCB surface.
• Can I use this for cutting PCB traces?
  Yes, the sharpest tips can be used for precision trace cutting or scraping solder mask for jumpers.
• Is the handle ESD safe?
  The handle is metal. If you are grounded, the handle is grounded. It is standard for conductive tools.
• Does it come with a carrying case?
  Packaging varies, but it typically comes in a blister pack or card holder to keep blades organized.
• What is "Black Glue" and does this remove it?
  Black glue is the epoxy underfill used by manufacturers to secure chips. This tool is specifically designed to slice through that epoxy.
• Are the blades magnetic?
  Yes, being steel, they can be magnetized, which is helpful for picking up tiny loose screws.
• Can I use this for 3D print cleanup?
  Absolutely. It is excellent for removing supports from delicate areas where flush cutters won't fit.
• What temperature should I set my hot air gun to?
  For glue cleaning, typically 200°C-280°C. For chip removal, 350°C-380°C (depending on your station).
• Will the heat from the hot air gun damage the blade?
  No, the steel is heat-resistant and will not deform at standard soldering temperatures.
• Is this tool safe for beginners?
  It requires a steady hand. We recommend practicing on dead scrap boards before attempting a repair on a working device.
