Soldering tip conical 1 x 16.7 mm 302 °C STTC series - Metcal STTC-507

On Metcal SmartHeat stations the working temperature is selected through the cartridge instead of the power unit. The STTC series STTC-507 is a conical solder cartridge with a 1 mm tip diameter and 16.7 mm tip length, rated at a fixed tip temperature of 302 °C. It is made for temperature sensitive applications with minimal thermal load on component and board.

Benefits

• Low fixed tip temperature of 302 °C to protect heat sensitive components and thin tracks
• Conical geometry for precise single joints and tight component spacing
• Self regulating SmartHeat technology keeps the temperature at the joint stable without setting or calibration
• Tip length of 16.7 mm for defined access to the joint
• Tool free cartridge change on the MX-H1-AVA, MX-RM3E hand pieces

Applications

Fine hand soldering and rework on densely populated boards, SMD joints, attaching thin wires and stranded leads, and access to pads that sit close to neighbouring components. The slim geometry reaches recessed joints without touching parts next to them.

Compatibility and scope of delivery

The cartridge fits the MX-H1-AVA, MX-RM3E hand pieces and works on the MX-500, MX-5000 and MX-5200 systems. Changing tip shape or temperature means swapping the cartridge during operation. The order unit is one piece, supplied as a single STTC-507 solder cartridge without hand piece and without power unit.
