Quality Soldering Irons for all purposes

     

Soldering Irons

To do good work in ANY modelling area, high quality tools are essential - and without doubt soldering is one place where owning and using the right tool will make the difference between success and failure!

The Soldering iron specification is important of course, but as well as the right tip and consistent heat delivery, the fit and feel of the Iron in your hand are very important too… because just as you write best with a well made and balanced pen, a high quality Iron will feel good in your hand and as a result, it will give the greatest comfort and quality in its results!

So… if you are serious about doing a good job of kit-building, wiring the layout, DCC installation or anything else - then make sure that you maximize the chances of success, and keep soldering a pleasure by choosing the right Soldering Iron, solder, flux & related tools!

We guarantee that if you do, it will make an absolutely huge difference to every task you do at the workbench, whether it is assembling brass or whitemetal kits, soldering wire to rail, soldering decoder wires, adding wires to PCB’s or installing LEDs…

(Bear in mind that for decoder, LED and anything with electronics, you should choose an ESD safe (“static free”) iron and always use a quick precise touch of the Iron to avoid heat damage.)

Most importantly, it will be an easier and more enjoyable task with these products - we absolutely guarantee it as we will ONLY sell soldering equipment we will use ourselves!

Of course, once you have the correct Iron, you will still need the right solder and flux...To see our full range, click here.

(Just in case you missed it, we also have a massive section on how to solder, covering the “how to” of soldering almost anything! This really does give a step by step soldering guide , so  Click here if you wish to read it now)

DCCconcepts own

60 watt temperature controlled soldering Iron

Based on the famous production line quality Hakko 936, 60 watt professional soldering Iron that we have sold for the past few years, this excellent value Iron will be available for a limited time from DCCconcepts at a very special price which is a full $100 below that of the Hakko 936.

As with all Soldering Irons we supply, it will be provided complete with two tips that cover almost any soldering application, as well as a high quality soldering Iron stand complete with sponge and tip cleaner.

We will continually stock spare Irons and tips as well as elements and base station parts for this model as we do with all soldering stations.

Whilst it is not possible to warrant elements and tips etc as their life will vary depending on quality of each individuals use, it is offered with a full 90 day warranty and a one year guarantee on the base station & control electronics, far more than any other brand will offer on a comparable product!

***Images and full product specifications will be posted here January 2010***

HAKKO Soldering Irons:

We say often in this website that we will only ever sell things we truly believe in and will use ourselves, and nowhere is this more important than in soldering tools and accessories… They have to be the best!

A good soldering iron is like a fine pen - light and a delight to hold, it delivers heat quickly and exactly where needed and it maintains it as long as needed for bigger jobs.

We have decided to focus on high quality Japanese made Hakko soldering irons as they are the pre-eminent manufacturer, used on production lines world wide ...and they have gained this position by better quality, consistency, reliability and exceptional performance.

Once you get used to using a top quality soldering Iron, you will never want to part with it or change, so most importantly we carry not only the excellent Hakko product, but also stock a range of tips in popular modelling shapes and sizes, spare Irons, elements and just about any part you may ever require to keep your Iron working happily for as long as you are modelling!

We know how frustrating it is to need a new tip too—so ALL Hakko Irons are supplied with TWO—a fine electronics tip for decoder and electronics work, and a delicate but versatile small chisel type for larger joints such as wire to rail and brass kit assembly.

Finally—We really DO now use them ourselves, so can absolutely guarantee that no matter what you use it for, it will be the perfect soldering tool!

ALL Hakko soldering irons we stock are also ESD safe.
