About this deal

The base is heavy and weighted made out of solid stainless steel. It is powder-coated with industrial-grade rubber feet to make sure that the base does not move easily due to air or accidental hand fall.

Speaking of the clampers, they are strong and are small and also made out of stainless steel. They have a very strong grip to them and are attached to the 4 tentacles, which themselves are made out of sturdy industrial-grade rubber but very flexible too and can move about in 360 degrees. It also most importantly comes with accessories such as a magnifying glass cum LED light as well. This magnifying glass can zoom in on the project 3 times (3x) when looked from above.The magnifying glass set up also has a small 5-watt neutral colour LED which acts as a table light thus lighting up the details thus adding more detail through the PureView Optical Glass. This light can be powered using any USB adapter through a laptop, computer or a power outlet too. The set up also comes with a USB powered fan that will blow away any toxic soldering fumes that may form thus serve as an addition of defence against lead-based solder. A soldering helping hand is a nifty tool that aids in holding the circuit board and ensuring a proper solder joint. As the name suggests, they are a pair of mechanical hand-like clutches that hold together circuit boards, electronic components, or wires to facilitate an error-free joint creation.

Thus, this innovative flex design let you use the soldering iron steadily for a longer period. In addition, it comes with a heavy powder-coated steel 8X8 inches X-shaped base with rubber feet that allows you to work comfortably on the bench or desk without moving. Also, it prevents getting any scuffing or scratching on the work surface. The helping hand may not have a wide metal base but it comes with the great build quality and awesome accessories studded to it. Starting with it is the 3x zoom magnifying glass. This lets you inspect your project for greater detail and perform a better job. It has 2 pairs of anti-split rubber feet. This will keep the base in its place and not move about due to accidental touch or movement due to air as such. The feet are powder coated with industrial-grade rubber for no-slip. Solder helping hands come with clippers that will hold the elements in place. All you need to do is adjust the height of the arms and place the two (or three) elements that need to be soldered together on the clips. Now you solder them together. Make sure that the solder is not touching the alligator clips Conclusion It has a total of 4 rubber-based arms that are durable and highly flexible. These clamps can be rotated to a 360 degrees and let you take any position you desire for your elements.

You can only compare up to four products at a time.

Foundation: The foundation of a solder helping hand is very important. This Base will provide you with a foundational weight that will keep the elements in the hand, in place without moving them. The base foundation of the device needs to be heavy and sturdy enough that it does not move very easily. Also, please bear in the mind that the foundation board should also be broad enough to be able to hold the width of a good-sized PCB board apart from regular elements too.
