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

Best iron for SMD and power electronics (thick traces, gr planes, large wires) is the Metcal, my SP-200 design of 1995 is still made. A color band can be attached to the handle, and this makes it possible to see at a glance which side it is connected to. Fine tip and slim heater ensure your sophisticated soldering for precise components on high density PWB under microscope.

Includes Soldering Iron and standard soldering tip, as well as a soldering iron stand and cleaning wire.

The compact Hakko FX-888D soldering station is the digital successor to the analogue FX-888 soldering station. Also the HAKKO FX888D delivers excellent thermal recovery by using T18 series soldering tips for their terrific heat conductivity.

With adjustment mode, what used to be a troublesome procedure is now as simple as entering the measured tip temperature to FX-888D.With adjustment mode, what used to be a troublesome procedure is now as simple as entering the measured tip temperature to FX888D. No experience with Hakko 888 or the modern Blue/Yellow digital but Hakko Japan is a very high quality supplier.

The tips on Hakko 888 are a tiny bit different, I think a few mm longer, but they would probably work on Yihua station. The Hakko FX-888D delivers excellent thermal recovery by using T18 series tips for their terrific heat conductivity.

Variety of other tools available including ot smd tweezers, one handed soldering iron with solder feed and a high powered Soldering Iron.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. When there is a drop in heat capacity while soldering, the actual temperature of the tip can be raised slightly by selecting BOOST mode, improving workability. T18 and T19 tip series are designed to have improved thermal conductivity from their previous models by reviewing both external and internal structures.
