SMT Bead Shearing

Anyone using SMT "Fair-Rite" beads? We have a P/N 2743019447 that we're using. We need to know the shear force strength of the part and the vendor's man who knows is in Deutschland and can't help until Monday. I can't wait that long.

Also, does anyone know the best way to measure shear force?

Many thanks in advance toanyone who knows and tells.

When you have a board in one hand and a sheared ferrite in the other, what does the ex-ferrite location look like:

1 Green mask colored, because the pad is "ripped off" the board 2 Gray lumpy looking, because the solder joint failed 3 Mostly black, because the ferrite is neither completely here or there 4 Something else .... What pray tell!!

From what I have seen, a few beads have popped off the board. Left behind is the solder and pad. There doesn't appear to be a problem with process (reflow settings are OK, solder is OK, and stencil apertures are OK) and, as I now understand, the component is available without Ni, which appears to decrease the shear resistance of the component.
