Weller RTU soldering tips are precision-engineered, factory-pre-tinned replacement tips designed for the Weller MS series soldering stations. Each tip integrates the heating element, sensor, and tip body into a single sealed unit, delivering thermal recovery in under 5 seconds and maintaining set-point temperatures within ±2 °C across the full operating range of 50-450 °C. The iron-plated copper core ensures uniform heat distribution, while the long-life coating extends service life to over 100,000 solder cycles under standard IEC 60335-2-45 operating conditions.
esd.equipment stocks 29 Weller RTU tip variants - covering conical, chisel, bevel, and specialty profiles - all fully compatible with the Weller WM 120 and WM 120D soldering stations and compliant with IEC 61340-5-1 EPA requirements for ESD-safe soldering environments. As an authorized distributor of Weller soldering technology, esd.equipment provides direct access to OEM tips with traceable batch documentation for ISO 9001, IPC-A-610, and IATF 16949 process environments.
