HAKKO FX-888D Professional Soldering Station & Soldering Iron + Tip Set Soldering Kit 70W - 50°C to 480°C UK Plug – for Electronics, Stained Glass & Other Soldering, rework and desoldering

Product Information

Introducing the FX888D-17SV Silver Digital Soldering Station – Reliable digital technology by HAKKO – Temperature adjustment* is an essential part of any strict quality control system. With adjustment mode, what used to be a troublesome procedure is now as simple as entering the measured tip temperature to FX888D. The angle of the iron holder can be changed freely so that the iron holder accommodates soldering in both a standing and a sitting position.

An iron holder of the same color of a soldering station comes as a set. The highly functional iron holder not only improves ease of use, but also brings a sense of visual consistency to the work environment. Heater output has been increased by 30% compared to that of the conventional models HAKKO 936/937. Also FX-888D delivers excellent thermal recovery by using T18 series tips for their terrific heat conductivity. This feature is very convenient when you want to change the set temperature to suit a particular workpiece, component, or tip shape. Simply select the desired temperature from a selection of preset temperatures registered in advance. (Up to 5 preset temperatures can be registered.) Pre-set mode can save your trouble and improve workability. Lead-free solder is more common nowadays, due to the dangers of working with lead. It’s less harmful to users as well as the environment and still produces excellent results. The only downside is the relatively high melting point. Different Soldering Tips Some of the more versatile soldering stations come with hot air guns attached. They’re a brilliant bit of kit to have on hand if you’re working with electronics or other crafting jobs. They use an internal fan and a heating element to fire a blast of air with pinpoint accuracy.

Please note:

With only two operation buttons of UP and ENTER in the center, operation is simple and easy. Even if you’re not familiar with operation of machines, you can operate it without difficulty. This type has a shape like a cone or column cut at a slant, which allows users to select the cut surface size depending on the workpiece.

The key element in soldering is the metal alloy that is liquified by the soldering iron. This liquid metal creates connections between components to allow electricity to flow. Like welding, solder is also used by plumbers to seal copper pipe connections. There are plenty of different types available, but here are the most common: T15 tips are used with the FM2027 and FM2028 Soldering irons used with stations FX951, FX952, FM203, FM204 and FM206. The T15 Series includes almost 100 varieties of tip shape and size covering any soldering or rework application. They are organised into groups by “shape”: Can be used in combination with the HAKKO 490 smoke cleaner or the HAKKO 494 smoke absorbing system for line-production.One of my favourite things about modern soldering stations is temperature control. The soldering irons of old were crude, you’d plug them in, and they heated up to a certain temperature. Not any more though! With some soldering irons ranging from 50 – 480° C, you can use different types of solder and work on delicate circuit boards without damaging them. Hot Air Guns Soldering is the process of joining or taking apart things that are held together with solder. Solder is a metal alloy used mainly in electronics. It can also be found in crafts as diverse as stained glass window and jewellery making. If you want to work well with solder, then you need the best soldering station. Solder There are plenty of other specialist tips out there, but unless you’re really getting into soldering, the ones above are enough for DIYers. Temperature Control Lead-based solder is the oldest type still used. It’s mixed with tin in different amounts to produce different types of bonds. It has a low melting point and is easy to work with. Lead, however, can be dangerous to work with.

This allows soldering at a lower temperature and reducing the thermal impact on components as well as tip oxidation that can shorten tip life. This allows soldering at a lower set temperature and reducing the thermal impact on components as well as tip oxidation that can shorten tip life. Improve solderability and wettability with the HAKKO N 2system. *Requires a variety of equipment in addition to the N 2soldering iron.
