Guide for tip selection:
Good
Too light
Too heavy
The ideal tip choice is the tip which its active area should cover completely the solder
area. The best percentage of soldering area to tip active area is 2:1.
Tip care guide for longer life time:
- Clean the tip by wiping it with a wet sponge and slightly drag it out after each
use.
- Never use excessive mechanical force for the tip when soldering.
- Soldering tip oxidation should quickly be cleaned and removed; it negatively
affects the tip sensitivity.
- Use the wire mesh to remove bulk solder materials remaining over the tip after
each usage.
