Hello, technetts:
I am looking for IPC requirements for clinched leads components.   
According to IPC-A-610 Rev.A  the clinched leads angle should be not less 
than 45 degree  and the minimum length  was  0.030" for  Class 2.   The 
next revision  of  IPC-A- 610B  eliminated  any variable requirements for 
clicnched leads.  Now it requires only that clinched leads will not reduce 
minimum electrical clearance. In our case, we have a batch of  boards with 
DIP component leads that are flush to the board but not shorting to any 
other traces.  Is this acceptable ? Would we have any solderability 
problems during wave soldering (solder under the clinched lead)?
Please, advise.
Thanks in advance
