Hakko 611-2 Dual Solder Reel Stand, Black

Perfect, stays put and great for two different diameters.

Weighted base will not tip. No regrets here.

Once assembled its very solid, holds two reels without them hitting each other. Simple to swap in a new reel if you need to change solder. Perfectly happy with it.

Keeps both solder spool in one place. Do not have to search for solder

Much heavier than I expected. This is very stable when pulling the solder of the spools.

Dont bother with the Hakko 611-1 single reel stand. If you do get the single reel stand, your going to regret it. For a few bucks more you can save space and FYI: assembly required. Solid, quality construction.

very well designed, quality parts, easy to assemble and use

This is a well made high quality dispenser. Two spools allows two techs or two different size solder gauges to be dispensed. It is delivered disassembled in a flat pack with all parts indivually bagged to prevent shipping scratches and can be assembled in about 5 minutes. It has heavy duty walls .094 thick and base .125 thick, powder-coated steel. Full wrap-around rubber non-marring base locks on to the steel base and has stainless spring steel guides, the lower one can be fitted on the opposite side for two tech usage. Also has a grounding screw on the base for an ESD ground wire. The top carry handle is nicely chromed and folds. The spool axles are heavy duty ribbed ABS plastic and designed to prevent popping out but also easy to change spools, with .094 maximum side to side play.

I had one episode of the thing falling on the floor when an admittedly unusual situation developed. Assembly is not difficult, but it does require some dexterity, and the instructions are not perfect. I would also prefer that the spools were steel (they are plastic). Pretty handy thing to have.

Delivered as advertised.
