SOLDERING GUN 180W (YT-8245)

The YATO YT-8245 transformer soldering iron is a high-quality and powerful DIY+ class device with an ergonomic non-slip handle, designed for joining metal elements by soldering them with tin-lead soft soldering alloy. The soldering iron has an integrated LED work area illumination. The 180W power is sufficient for the tool tip to heat up from room temperature to approximately 350°C in just 12 seconds. Tip diameter: 3.35mm. The tip is coated with an anti-oxidant material.

Tip maintenance recommendations: Overheating and mechanical damage can quickly destroy the protective layer. If the tip oxidizes, you may have problems melting the solder. The tin no longer melts and does not adhere to the tip, but rather balls up and falls off. We recommend applying a small amount of tin, for example, from a brass wool, to the end of the tip the first time you heat the soldering iron, and then removing the excess. The tin layer formed in this way will protect the tip from oxidation. We advise tinning the tip after each use.

The soldering iron should be used intermittently according to the S2 20% cycle - heating for a maximum of 12 seconds, followed by a break of no less than 48 seconds.

The product comes with 3 interchangeable tips, rosin, tin and is presented in a sturdy YATO case.
