Plato Conical Solder Tip 0.031 In / 0.8 mm

Conical Solder Tip 0.8 mm

This conical solder tip measures 0.8 mm and is designed for use with ETP equipment. It suits technicians and hobbyists who need a fine point for precise joints on small components. The tip provides focused heat delivery for detailed electronics work. It is not intended for buyers who require larger tips for heavy-gauge wiring or high-mass soldering tasks.

Practical limits of the conical interface

The narrow 0.031 in diameter concentrates heat on a small area, which limits the amount of solder that can be melted at once. Thermal recovery slows when working on larger pads or ground planes because the tip stores less energy. Users needing faster throughput on bigger joints should select a tip with greater mass and surface contact.
