Hakko 599-029 Cleaning Wire for 599B Tip Cleaner, 5 Pack

I have a metal holder for my cleaners...these balls are small, so I need two to fill the holder. that ends up a little too much...but just a single barely fills to the opening on the holder. It would work great in just a flat cup.

An excellent wire sponge replacement in kind for your Hakko 633 iron holder. Keeps the tip clean for superb results.

Exactly what I was looking for.

real brass, which is what you need. This is what you want. Two thumbs up

Im a hobbyist who frequently has to do a bit of soldering electrical connections and such. I bought a Hakko soldering station years ago. I also bought a Hakko metal sponge style tip cleaner. It works much better than a wet sponge for my purposes (it might be one day or one month between soldering sessions--and the wet sponge always dries out). But ultimately the metal sponge will fill up with solder scraps, and you need to replace it with a new one. My local big box style electronics store is going under--and when I visited it a week or so before I ordered these sponges, they did not have Hakko sponges (or much of anything else) in stock. So I go to Amazon Prime and see a deal! 5 Hakko sponges in a pack for not much money. Now I actually have two of the Hakko plastic holders for the metal sponge, because I filled up one sponge and couldnt find a replacement sponge--had to buy the holder and the sponge. Anyway 5 Hakko metal tip cleaning sponges should last me at least a couple of years. And I know where to go back and get them again.

I have used these for quite a while and they last for a long time and clean the soldering tip well. Have tried other brands and they seem cheaply made compared to these.

Works great

As described

Ive tried the alternative Scotch Brite pads but nothing is as good as the original.

These are so much better than the cheap generic cleaning wire packs. Well worth the added cost IMO.
