9. Soldering Tip Care and Use
a. Tip Temperature
• High soldering temperatures can degrade the tip
•
Use the lowest possible soldering temperature. The excellent thermal recovery characteristics ensure efficient and effective
soldering even at low temperatures
• When not in use, do not leave the soldering iron on at a high temperature as the tip’s solder plating will get covered by oxide,
reduction it’s heat conductivity
b. Cleaning
•
Clean the tip regularly with a cleaning sponge, as oxides and carbides from the solder and flux can form impurities on the
tip. These impurities can result in defective joints or reduce the tip’s heat conductivity
• When using the soldering iron continuously, be sure to loosen the tip and remove all oxides at least once a week. This
helps prevent seizure and reduction of the tip temperature
• After use, wipe the tip clean and coat with fresh solder. This helps prevent tip oxidation.
