Thermaltronics TMT-TC-2 Tip Tinner (20g) in 0.8oz Container

Really gets the heat going! Makes the tip much more conductive. For example, Id put solder up to an un-tinned tip, it would work, but solder would take a second to melt, this makes the solder turn to liquid on contact.

Works great! Some fine tips needed just 5 sec of treatment, but this one was hopelessly oxidized and it required more than half a minute of my patience. But it was worth the effort, all my tips are now like new.

This stuff works wonders with soldering! Ive honestly never used this stuff before however I noticed it pop up on frequently purchased with when shopping for a new soldering gun. Im glad I gave it a go, makes soldering so much faster. If you ever have trouble getting your solder to start on the tip of your heat source this stuff with make it happen so smooth! A little dip into this and youre off to the races!

This stuff is absolutely great for modern solder tips! The fumes travel further than youd expect though so dont use it at normal working distance. Move further away unless you want a nose full of ammonia and who knows what else. Note that this doesnt remove corrosion on old brass tips. The chemical reaction seems to be iron based. So if you have an old soldering iron with brass tips youll probably have to use an abrasive to shine them up, but no big deal since its not like they have any plating that can get destroyed. Just dont sandpaper your whole tip away.

Quickly cleans and tins the soldering iron tip

Wow, I never used a tip tinner before, this is amazing! I’m a total convert. No more scraping tips and wrestling with getting the end tinned, this is nearly instant and leaves a perfect tinned tip.

Just really simple put the tip in the Chem at temp and brush the extra off with steel wool. The running doesn’t last very long but long enough get some work done. For the money it’s worth it.

keeps my tips clean and ready to solder

Makes soldering so much easier. Keeps tip properly tinned, quick and easy to use.

It works well for tinning its small and compact. It fits in my small soldering tool box.
