Heavy Duty Soldering Irons for Sheet Metal Soldering



When starting a sheet metal soldering job, you want to be sure that you have the right equipment. Many soldering irons and guns are made for small applications or home use and can't deliver the power that you need to create a lasting seal. Though all soldering irons fulfill the same function, you'll want a heavy-duty type when working with large metal pieces used for industrial applications.

With a heavy-duty soldering iron, you get your choice of tip size, shape and material. Choosing a tip with high thermal mass allows the iron to hold more heat for a longer period so you can get your work done without having to stop and re-heat it multiple times. The ability to produce high temperatures and recover lost heat quickly is a big plus when working on large jobs that require a long time spent soldering.

Soldering irons aren't just for use in big industries. If you're the type who enjoys building things or doing your own home repairs, you can benefit from having a heavy-duty soldering iron on hand. The power available from these tools allows you to tackle much bigger jobs than you can with smaller irons. Choose the right soldering iron for the job and the right material for the tip, and you'll have all you need to ensure that your next project goes smoothly.

Are American Beauty Soldering Irons Worthy of Their Name?



American Beauty Soldering Irons | StellarTechnical.com
American Beauty soldering irons have more going for them than just a flashy name. While it's true that they bear undeniably sleek aesthetics, real enthusiasts favor them for the fact that they're highly configurable; this also makes them equally appropriate for craftsmen and production-ready operations.

Although most American Beauty irons ship wired for 110/220 V mains power, they can be configured for 220/240 V installations as well. Standard models feature 30, 60, 100, 150, 175, 200, 250, 300 and 550 W power ratings, so it's easy to choose the correct tool for the job at hand whether you're working on a delicate SMD circuit board repair or a tough plumbing project.

Of course, a powerful soldering iron is nothing without a reliable heater, which is why these devices include Ni-Chrome wound elements designed to outlast as many heating and cooling cycles as possible without succumbing to fatigue or burning out along the way. To ensure maximum safety at lab benches and in the field, each American Beauty iron includes a grounded power cord housed in burn-resistant insulation. Best of all, all the devices in this family follow a similar modular design, so they're easy to repair or customize with different diamond points, tapered chisels and other tips. You can find these great selections online today at StellarTechnical.com!

One cool aspect of our
