Soldering and desoldering tips
SMD removal tips MiniTweez, ThermoPik, Blade
This category holds tips that remove SMD components in one piece: tweezer tips for the MiniTweez MT-100 and MT-200, package-specific removal tips for the ThermoPik TP-100 and for the TD-100 and TD-200 irons, and Blade tips for complete pin rows. Instead of working joint by joint, these tips melt all leads of a component at once and the part is lifted in the same step. Working widths range from 0.2 to 28 mm. Tubular tips for desoldering leaded components are in the neighbouring category for SX desoldering irons.

How to choose SMD removal tips MiniTweez, ThermoPik, Blade
What matters when choosing: properties, comparison and typical applications.
Selection criteria
| Criterion | Options | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Handpiece | MT-100, MT-200, TP-100, TD-100, TD-200 | Each tip is specified for one handpiece. |
| Package | chip 0201 to 1808, SOT, SOIC, SOP, TSOP, D-Pak, PLCC, QFP, TQFP, LQFP | Removal tips for TD-100, TD-200 and TP-100 are cut to one package size. |
| Working width | 0.2 to 28 mm | For MiniTweez the blade width follows the length of the lead row. |
| Footprint | for example 2.0, 2.6, 3.2 or 3.9 mm | Check this in addition to the body size for QFP and LQFP tips of the TP-100. |
| Design | straight, bent, extended, fine point | Bent and fine tips keep the joint in view. |
Applications
Chip components MiniTweez tips from 0.2 mm heat both ends of a chip and lift it straight away.
SOIC, SOT and D-Pak Wide MiniTweez blades cover both lead rows along their full length.
QFP and TQFP ThermoPik tips for the TP-100 lift quad packages from 12 x 12 to 28 x 28 mm in one step.
PLCC Square removal tips for the TD-100 melt the J-leads on all four sides at once.
SOP and TSOP Blade tips up to 25 mm heat long lead rows in one go.
FAQ
- Which tip fits which handpiece?
- Part numbers 1130-10xx are for the MT-200, 1124-10xx for the MT-100 and 1124-20xx for the TP-100. Blade and package tips are available for the TD-100 and for the TD-200, the product name states which.
- When to use thermal tweezers and when a removal tip on the iron?
- The MiniTweez grips the part from two sides and suits chips, SOT, SOIC and D-Pak. For PLCC and QFP with leads on four sides, package-specific tips for TD-100, TD-200 or TP-100 are intended.
- What does footprint mean on tips for the TP-100?
- Besides the body size, such as 14 x 14 mm, the footprint gives the dimension across the leads. Tips for the same body size are therefore offered with different footprints, for example 3.2 or 3.9 mm.
- Can these tips also be used to solder parts back in?
- The tips in this category are designed for removal. For soldering individual leads, use the soldering tips for TD-100, TD-200 and PS-90 in the neighbouring categories.
