Soldering Irons, Stations and Accessories

Soldering irons, stations and accessories bond two or more metallic surfaces together with a low melting alloy solder such as tin/lead or Sn/Cu/Ni/Ge alloys, which is melted, wets the surface and resolidifies forming a soldered joint.  A soldering iron is a tool with an internal heating element used to heat surfaces being soldered to the point where the solder becomes molten. A soldering station is a complete unit consisting of an electrical power supply and a soldering iron, used for soldering electronic components. There are many types of soldering irons, stations and accessories. Examples include a cordless soldering iron, soldering gun, and a butane soldering iron. A cordless soldering iron is utilized in soldering work, and is much easier to use without the encumbrance and limitation of a cord. A soldering gun is a powerful tool ideal for tasks such as soldering together small metal sheets and tubes. A butane soldering iron is a portable soldering iron tool is powered by butane gas. Other soldering irons, stations and accessories are commonly available.
