Standard board level repair Eyelets

[VERAULT]

This might seem like a crazy request. But in the NAVY we had these eyelets to repair boards. I know they come in all kinds of sizes but I am looking to find ones for standard through hole repairs that would work on your run of the mill 74ls00 legs. You know, you come upon something that a novice has tried to fix and they had the soldering iron set at too high a temp and kept the heat on the traces or pad for far too long and they lift off. Im just looking for the eyelet pads, a whole pack of them. Not VIAs mind you, just the flat eyelets.

Appears to have some Copper PCB eyelets.


If you know the outside Diameter of the Copper PCB Eyelet and the Length you need to
repair the PCB, and don't need a large quantity, I can send you some of my stash.
All you need is a center punch to get them tight in the PCB, then flare them out and
solder tack them to the PCB trace. It's an easy repair.
