Long Life Type

The following two cases of a short tip life may occur:

- Case where the iron-plated section is holed by corrosion.
- Case where the solder-plated section is blackened and oxidized,resulting in being less wettable.

Case of hole by corrosion

We would like to recommend you to use a long-life tip.

We would like to recommend you to use a long-life tip. Our specially-processed*1 long-life tip can provide approx. double of the life*2 of a standard tip. The available types and shapes are limited*3, however, we are sure that you will find out the difference. *1 Thermal efficiency may be lower than the standard type in some cases. *2 The above data are only experimental values and are not guaranteed values. *3 Long-life tips are available in four types for 900 Series and 16 types for T12 Series.

Case of being less wettable
