Hakko FX601-02 Adjustable Temperature Controlled Soldering Iron, 67 Watts

The best!

The larger capacity T19 tips add a lot of performance to this iron. Think of it as a cheaper Hakko fx-888d without a clunky station but just as powerful.

This makes stained glass easy!

Este soldador tiene un termostato para seleccionar la temperatura más adecuada al trabajo a realizar y, una vez seleccionada, la alcanza rápidamente lo que agiliza la labor de soldadura pero… la unidad que me llegó tenía una ruleta de selección que se movía con muchísima facilidad, al menor roce. Siguiendo las instrucciones que encontré en internet, le quité la ruleta y la dejé preparada para trabajar con la llave que adjunta el soldador para esa tarea. Moviendo esa llave comprobé que no había tope, que el regulador del termostato podía girar y girar en ambas direcciones y que me resultaba imposible controlar la temperatura de trabajo. En resumen, un buen producto, pero la unidad que me llegó estaba defectuosa.

I have used it a couple of time and it works great, the only down side is everything is in Korean.

My wife uses it heavily in her stained glass and is very happy with its performance.

Great, great iron. Heats to temp in about a minute. Great tip size for lead lines. Another iron I have by a well know brand is now regulated as a back up. Longevity is the only unknown at this point.

A+ top quality good hot iron perfect for leaded glass lamps !

This works perfectly for stain glass soldering. The temperature gauge is a must have because the heat is steady at 410 and 360 degrees. It is light weight and feels like a pen in your hand to minimize fatigue and maintain control for accuracy.

Best soldering iron I have ever used. Better than Hexacon & Unger.
