Sky Hooks and Board Stiffening Tooling
Sky Hooks and Board Stiffeners are used to keep the PCB flat during the Reflow or Wave Solder process. The majority of these types of tools are used to keep the PCB flat around critical BGA types of components. These stiffeners are all custom made for your application.
