How to maintain the tip

The tips of "Sthor" soldering irons are coated with a material that reduces tip oxidation. Prolonged heating and mechanical damage gradually deteriorate the protective layer, in which case the tip oxidizes quickly, leading to problems soldering the solder joint. Instead of adhering and staying on the soldering iron tip, the solder flakes off and falls away. A proven method for maintaining the soldering tip - tin it. After initially heating the soldering iron, apply a bit of solder to its tip and remove the excess, for example, with brass shavings. The formed layer of solder protects against oxidation. It is advisable to tin the soldering tip every time you finish working.

Attention!

Soldering irons powered directly from the mains socket must have a plug with a grounding pin and must be supplied from a socket with grounding. If the metal housing of the heater is not grounded, there is a risk of electric shock, which in the best case will result in burns. All "Sthor" brand soldering irons have a grounded plug, which is connected to the metal heater housing.
