Hakko T18S3P Tip for Fx-888 Station, 5.2mm

Wow, I thought soldering was a chore till I found the hakko gear. Now I love it. I literally soldered up by hand 4000+ lithium batteries over the beginning of covid ( isolation issues) with this tip and I just replaced it 3 years later and hundreds of hours running and 20,000 solder touches latter. The first I burned through but my first other shack brand and Wellers never would have gone this far.

So far so good. Used it a number of times with no problems.

This tip has proven to be a perfect size for the stained glass work I do, together with the fx888 its an awesome tool. I recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade.

Im at best a novice user of soldering irons. I was struggling with getting enough heat into heavy coax using the factory tip and kept causing more damage than anything. This made all the difference for me with being able to consistently create a good solder joint. I should have ordered this at the same time as the actual soldering iron and saved myself a lot of hassle and wasted coax

These Hakko tips are of high quality and coated for corrosion protection, the tips are also coated for long life. Hakko has tips for every possible soldering job, you can tell these tips are made to last. I purchased many different Hakko tips for various soldering jobs along with my Hakko FX-888, there are some 40 different tips. Highly Recommended!

Great quality solder tips.Serious tip for serious connectors.

Great quality solder tips. Pre-tinned so solder sticks perfectly right from the start.

I purchased a cheap china made soldering station and the tips did not melt the solder properly, I replace with this T18 Hakko tip and what a difference it improve the performance of the soldering station.

Product arrived sooner than expected. Appears to be genuine; good value.

Perfect for soldering wiring together and perfect for soldering any gauge wire to a deans connector. Ive used loads of bad solder tips in the past and decided to go with the Hakko - I havent looked back since. Probably the best electronics purchase I have made.
