What sets our laser-cut solder paste stencils apart?

Our stencils are crafted using hardened, high-nickel-content stainless steel, ensuring compatibility with all lead-free solder pastes. Every stencil is cut with no photo tooling, so you benefit from superior positional accuracy and precise aperture dimensions, even on high-density boards. 

​

We inspect every stencil against your data using our advanced Scan-Check system, catching any deviations before dispatch. You can select thicknesses from 0.1mm up to 0.25mm, with all options kept in stock for fast delivery. We are also licensed to produce VectorGuard™ stencils, giving you even more flexibility for your production needs.
