Solder cartridge tip conical 0.5 x 15.2 mm 302 °C STTC series - Metcal STTC-543

For soldering and rework on single pins and closely spaced leads, the STTC-543 cartridge from the Metcal STTC series provides a conical tip of 0.5 x 15.2 mm at a fixed working temperature of 302 °C. The heater sits inside the cartridge itself and the temperature is maintained inductively, so neither calibration nor readjustment is needed.

Benefits

• Self regulating tip temperature of 302 °C without calibration or controller setting
• Conical tip of 0.5 mm diameter for single pins, fine pitch work and rework
• Tip length 15.2 mm for access to joints on densely populated assemblies
• Cartridge change in seconds with the MX-H1-AVA and MX-RM3E hand pieces

Applications

The cartridge is used at hand soldering benches in electronics production, repair and prototype work. The conical tip works on single pins, on QFP and SOIC leads as well as on wire links and fine pitch rework. The low tip temperature limits heat input into sensitive components and board material.

Compatibility and scope of delivery

The STTC-543 cartridge fits the MX-H1-AVA and MX-RM3E hand pieces and runs on the Metcal MX-500, MX-5000 and MX-5200 systems. Within the STTC series tip geometry and working temperature can be combined freely while the hand piece stays the same. Scope of delivery is one STTC-543 solder cartridge tip, order unit piece.
