Hope this helps. Have both terminations enter the wave at the same time because of thermal shocking. You will see large cracks in the ceramic material but I have only experience funstion failures due to the cracking when at a capacitance of .1 uf in a 0805 package. Also monitor for time over the wave and density. This package is common for being sucked off of the PCB due to the solder tension.

It seems like I remember something about a problem wave soldering 1210 chip
caps (ceramic). I've been searching the archives for this subject but was
unsuccesful. Does anyone have any information on this as a problem?
Thank you,
