A plastic bottle containing 250ml of high concentration ferric chloride etching fluid. The fluid can be used as supplied, but should be diluted with 250ml of water before use (i.e. one part etchant, one part water). Childproof container.

A pack of Ferric Chloride (FeCl3) crystals for etching copper clad boards. Packet contains sufficient crystals to make one pint of solution. Dissolve in 250ml of warm water. Store and etch in plastic or glass vessels. With regular stirring, etching will take about 20 minutes or longer depending on how many times solution has been used before. One pint will etch about 2260sq.cm. (350sq.in.).
Safer, and
excellent value compared to ferric chloride
Excellent stability
Etching time is 5 to 10 minutes at 45°ree;C
1kg makes 5 litres of etch solution This sodium persulphate based etch powder has been specifically developed for etching copper laminate used in the electronics industry. The product exhibits excellent stability in use leaving surfaces clean, even and free of staining.
1kg will make 5 litres of etch solution, or 200g per litre.
4.5 litres of water is heated to between 40 to 50°ree;C and the powder is slow stirred into the water. When dissolved, top up to 5 litres with water. The solution should last between 4 to 8 weeks, but is dependent upon the volume of copper in solution.
<B>N.B</B> To prevent premature breakdown of the solution, do not operate in excess of 50°ree;C. Supplied in 1kg tubs.
A sodium-hydroxide free
PCB developer that is supplied in free flowing odourless granules and is ready for dilution with water. Suitable for single or double sided PCBs, and all applications such as prototype work is 10g of granules with 100ml of water, or the full 250g would make up to 2.5 litres of developer.
The ideal temperature for dilution and developing is room temperature, i.e. approximately 20C. Development time will depend on the complexity of the board design, dilution ratio of the solution and the temperature.
After development, the board should be rinsed thoroughly and dried either in air or an oven. Always wear protective gloves and goggles and avoid contact with the eyes and skin but, in case of contact, flush liberally with water.
Ensure all containers and utensils used with this product are made from strong chemical-resistant plastics or glass.
Do not use any equipment made from metal.
