Choose the tip model and specifications wisely
In lead-free soldering, soldering iron tips are not universal. Choosing the correct model and specifications of the soldering iron tip can only improve work efficiency. The welding effect can also be improved! The following is the range of use recommended by Gerun soldering tip manufacturer for various soldering tip models and specifications!
B, LB type (conical type)
Features: The B-type soldering iron tip has no directionality, and the entire front end of the soldering iron tip can be welded.
Scope of application: Suitable for general soldering, regardless of the size of solder joints, B-type soldering iron tips can also be used.
K type (knife type)
Features: The blade-shaped part is used for welding, and it can be used for vertical or pull-welding welding. It is a multi-purpose soldering iron tip.
Application scope: Suitable for SOJ, PLCC, SOP, QFP, power supply, grounding components, correction tin bridge, connectors, etc. welding.
Type I (pointed)
Features: The tip of the soldering iron tip is fine.
Scope of application: Suitable for fine welding or when the welding space is small. It can also correct tin bridges produced when welding chips.
D. LD type (flat type/flat nozzle type)
Flat types include 0.8D, 1.2D, 1.6D, 2.4D, 3.2D, 4.2D, etc.
Features: Use the nozzle part for welding.
Scope of application: Suitable for welding that requires a large amount of tin, such as a welding environment with a large welding area, thick terminals, and large soldering pads.
C, CF type (horseshoe type/beveled cylindrical type)
Horseshoe type includes 0.5C, 0.8C, 1C, 2C, 3C, 4C, etc.
Features: Use the beveled part of the front end of the soldering iron tip for welding, suitable for welding that requires a large amount of tin.
Application range: The application range of C-type soldering iron tip is similar to that of D-type soldering iron tip, such as large welding area, thick terminals and large soldering pads.
0.5C, 1C, 1.5CF and other soldering iron tips are very fine, suitable for soldering small components, or correcting tin bridges, tin pillars, etc. generated during surface soldering. If only a small amount of solder is needed for welding, it is more suitable to use a CF type soldering iron tip with tin plating only on the bevel.
2C and 3C type soldering iron tips are suitable for soldering components such as resistors and diodes. SOP and QFP with larger tooth pitch can also be used.
4C, suitable for thick terminals and grounding on circuit boards. Welding situations that require large amounts of heat, such as power supply parts.
H type (bent nose type)
Features: The tin plating layer is at the bottom of the soldering iron tip.
Application scope: Suitable for pull welding SOP and QFP with large tooth pitch
