Soldering and desoldering tips - ESD (antistatic)
Ersa Soldering Technology
Ersa soldering and desoldering tips are precision-machined from copper alloy and coated with iron-clad nickel-chrome layers for tip life spans exceeding 50,000 solder joints under continuous operation. Each series is model-specific - tip geometry, bore diameter, and thermal mass are matched to the iron's heating element to deliver tip temperatures stable within ±2 °C at set point. Operating temperatures range from 150 °C to 450 °C depending on series and iron model, covering fine-pitch SMT rework down to 0.3 mm pitch as well as heavy through-hole desoldering on leads up to 3.5 mm diameter. All Ersa tips comply with IEC 61010-1 for hand-held soldering tools and meet ESD-safe handling requirements per IEC 61340-5-1 when used with properly grounded Ersa stations.
As an authorised Ersa distributor, esd.equipment stocks 250 soldering and desoldering tip references spanning 11 dedicated series - from the i-Tool Series 102 and i-Tool TRACE/MK2 Series 142 through to the X-Tool Series 722 and CT80 Series 662 desoldering nozzles. Each series is listed by compatible iron or desoldering tool, making cross-referencing straightforward for service technicians, PCB rework specialists, and production engineers operating under IPC-7711/7721 rework standards.
