Hakko N3 Series
Hakko Soldering and Desoldering Tips
The Hakko N3 Series comprises precision soldering and desoldering tips engineered for the Hakko FX-951 and FM-203 stations, delivering tip temperatures stable to within ±1 °C at the work surface and a thermal recovery time of under 2 seconds at 350 °C. Tip resistance values are maintained below 2 Ω to protect ESD-sensitive components, with all tips fully compliant with IEC 61340-5-1 for use in EPA-controlled environments. The series covers a focused range of 8 specialist tip geometries - from fine-point conical profiles for 0201 component work to broad chisel and hoof designs for drag-soldering on 1.27 mm pitch connectors.
As a specialist distributor for Hakko soldering technology, esd.equipment stocks all 8 N3 Series tips for immediate dispatch, covering the full compatibility range for FX-951 handpieces and FM-203 multi-port stations. Each tip is manufactured to Hakko's original DIN EN ISO 9001-certified production standards, with nickel-plated copper cores and iron-coated working ends designed for a rated service life of 50,000 or more solder joints under normal operating conditions.
