Solder cartridge tip conical curved 30° 0.8 x 16 mm 302 °C STTC series - Metcal STTC-540

For soldering and rework on single pins and closely spaced leads, the STTC-540 cartridge from the Metcal STTC series provides a conical curved 30° tip of 0.8 x 16 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 0.8 mm diameter for single pins, fine pitch work and rework
• Tip bent by 30° reaches joints behind connectors and heat sinks without tilting the hand piece
• Tip length 16 mm for access to joints on densely populated assemblies
• Cartridge change in seconds with the MX-H1-AVA and MX-RM3E hand pieces

Technical data

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-540 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-540 solder cartridge tip, order unit piece.
