The safe way to remove chips. This U-Type IC Extractor features a distinctive green vinyl grip for insulation and comfort. Designed for standard DIP components, it applies an even vertical force to lift ICs from sockets without bending pins or damaging the PCB. An essential auxiliary tool for welding, desoldering, and electronics repair.
Quick Introduction: Protect your components and your hands. The Green IC Extractor U-Type Tool is a staple on any repair bench. Unlike bare metal extractors, this model features a thick green vinyl coating on the handle, providing a comfortable non-slip grip and basic insulation. It is specifically designed to grab 8-pin to 24-pin DIP integrated circuits and lift them cleanly out of their sockets or hold them during hot-air desoldering.
Detailed Specifications
Type: U-Shape IC Extractor / Puller Clip.
Material: Stainless Steel Core + Green PVC/Vinyl Insulation.
Handle Colour: Green (Insulated Grip).
Length: Approx. 105mm (Total).
Jaw Width: Approx. 36mm (Adjustable by squeezing).
Application: Electronic IC repair, replacement, and small component handling.
Compatibility: Standard DIP/DIL packages (Dual In-line Package).
Quality Advantage & Differentiation: Why choose the Green U-Type model?
Insulated Grip: The green coating isn't just for looks; it reduces the risk of shorting adjacent components if you accidentally drop the tool on a live board (though power should always be off!).
Comfort: The vinyl dip makes the tool easier to squeeze for extended periods compared to bare steel edges that dig into your fingers.
Versatility: Beyond ICs, the hook design is excellent for grabbing and pulling small relays, capacitors, or connectors that are tightly packed on a PCB.
Key Applications & Usage
Chip Swapping: Removing BIOS chips, Op-Amps, or Microcontrollers from sockets.
Desoldering Aid: Holding a component while using a hot air rework station to lift it off the board without burning your fingers.
Connector Removal: Pulling stubborn JST or header connectors straight up without straining the wires.
What's Included & Required
Included: 1x Green IC Extractor U-Type Tool.
Required: Electronic device with DIP components.

⚠️ PLCC WARNING:
This is a U-Type puller for Rectangular chips (DIP).
Do NOT use this for Square chips (PLCC) found on some motherboards. You need a specific "PLCC Tongs" extractor for those. Using this U-tool on a square socket will often crack the plastic socket corners.
⚠️ SOLDERED COMPONENTS:
If the chip is soldered, you must melt the solder first (using a soldering iron or hot air). Do not pull cold soldered chips; you will rip the copper tracks off the circuit board.
⚠️ ADJUSTING TENSION:
If the tool feels too loose or too tight, you can gently bend the metal U-shape inwards or outwards to adjust the resting width to match your specific chips.
