Description

Ensure your soldering iron tips are always in peak condition with this Jumbo 1/2 Lb. Sal Ammoniac Block. Specially designed for cleaning and re-tinning iron-clad soldering tips, this block enhances the performance and longevity of your soldering iron by maintaining a smooth, even tin coat.

Why Use the Sal Ammoniac Block?

  • Cleans and Re-Tins: Removes oxidation and applies a fresh tin coating, helping your soldering iron deliver consistent heat and better solder flow.
  • Improves Tip Longevity: Keeps tips working faster and lasting longer by preventing corrosion and wear.
  • Essential for Lead-Free Soldering: Provides extra care for tips used with tough lead-free solder, which can be harsh on tip surfaces.

How to Use:

  1. Re-Tin Regularly: Melt a bead of solder onto the block and press your hot iron tip into it to create a fresh tin layer.
  2. Avoid Abrasive Cleaning: Wipe with a wet rag instead of harsh scrubbers to prevent tip damage.
  3. Skip the Flux Dip: While flux may clean, it’s too harsh for regular use and can shorten tip life.
  4. Prevent Tip Freezing: Remove your tip occasionally to clear any buildup inside the barrel and prevent it from getting stuck.

Key Features:

  • Ideal for maintaining the exposed iron cladding on modern iron-clad tips.
  • Works as a tinning block to ensure a clean, efficient soldering experience.
  • Helps maximize heat transfer by maintaining a smooth tip surface.

Keep your soldering tips in top shape and achieve flawless results every time with this essential Sal Ammoniac Block!
