Description
Introduction
When working with electronics, mobile phones, or delicate PCBs, removing solder efficiently and cleanly is just as important as applying it. A poor-quality desoldering tool can leave behind solder residue, overheat components, or even damage circuit boards. To solve these challenges, 2UUL introduces the WL-2515 Double-Sided Copper Desoldering Wick, an essential tool designed to ensure precision, safety, and reliability in every repair.
This high-quality copper braid measures 2.5 mm wide and 1.5 m long, offering the perfect balance of surface area and length for a wide range of soldering and desoldering tasks. Whether you’re a professional mobile repair technician, an electronics engineer, or a hobbyist, the WL-2515 Desoldering Wick ensures that solder removal is fast, effective, and residue-free.
Why a Good Desoldering Wick Matters
In modern electronics, space is limited, and components are small. Incorrect solder removal can:
-
Overheat and damage PCBs.
-
Lift pads or traces due to excess heat or pressure.
-
Leave solder bridges, which cause short circuits.
-
Waste time and effort when low-quality braid fails to absorb solder properly.
The 2UUL WL-2515 Copper Wick is crafted with high-purity copper strands and an optimized weave that maximizes solder absorption while minimizing heat stress on delicate components.
Key Features of 2UUL WL-2515
1. Premium Copper Construction
Made from oxygen-free, high-purity copper, this braid provides excellent thermal conductivity, ensuring solder is absorbed quickly and efficiently.
2. Double-Sided Weaving
The advanced weaving pattern allows solder to flow smoothly into the braid from both sides, increasing absorption speed and efficiency.
3. Optimal Size (2.5 mm × 1.5 m)
-
2.5 mm width is ideal for medium-sized solder joints, connectors, and component pads.
-
1.5 m length provides enough material for multiple repair jobs, making it cost-effective.
4. Flux-Coated for Efficiency
Pre-coated with flux, the wick initiates fast solder absorption as soon as it touches molten solder, reducing the need for additional flux.
5. Precision Desoldering
Perfect for removing solder from:
-
Mobile phone PCBs.
-
Laptop and tablet motherboards.
-
Fine-pitch ICs and microchips.
-
Through-hole and surface-mount components.
6. Safe Heat Transfer
Because copper conducts heat evenly, the wick allows technicians to apply minimal heat while removing solder, protecting sensitive components from thermal damage.

How to Use the 2UUL WL-2515 Desoldering Wick
-
Place the Wick on the Joint – Position the braid directly over the solder to be removed.
-
Apply Heat with a Soldering Iron – Gently press the heated soldering iron tip onto the braid.
-
Absorb the Solder – The molten solder will flow into the braid quickly.
-
Lift and Trim – Once solder is absorbed, lift the wick and trim off the used section.
-
Repeat if Needed – Continue until the pad or joint is completely clean.
