A resistance soldering iron kit made specifically for silver jewelry, brass  and other copper based metal models.

It’s the ultimate tool for beginners and experts alike!

Features

• Everything you need to work with photo etched parts, etched brass kits, silver, nickel silver, thin brass, copper-based metals, and even thin mild steel.
• Affordable price
• Easy to assemble.
• Two soldering tip power settings for the right amount of power for your specific task. The 3v-10 amp setting is ideal for soldering photo etched parts without the need to tin them, while the 6v-10 amp setting provides extra heat for thicker pieces and thin mild steel.
• Uses a CE certified transformer that  is exclusively made for hobby modeling and jewelry making.
• Conveniently powered from household 115 or 230v AC, making it ready to use wherever you are.

Advantages

• Heat is localized at the point where the soldering iron tip touches the metal.
• Localized heating is nearly instantaneous so nearby joints are not affected. The result is that you can make joints that you could not make with a conventional soldering iron.
• Hobby modelers can solder photo etched parts, etched brass kits and other thin copper based metals without warping or scaring surfaces.
• Eliminates the need for a torch. Not only is there no flame or burn hazard, because the heat is localized, there is no oxidation or fire scaling of the work and therefore no requirement for pickling. Great for jewelry work!
• Burn hazards are eliminated because soldering probes cool rapidly.
• Removing enamel from magnet wire is fast and efficient.
• They are particularly time efficient with solder paste. There is no need for flux, pre-tinning, or after soldering flux and excess solder cleanup.
• Material and operating costs are lower.
• If you use flux, you need less because flux activation is higher.
• Solder use is lower because tip pre-tinning and conditioning is eliminated.
• Power consumption is reduced. While conventional soldering irons are continuously on, resistance soldering irons are on demand units and that demand is typically only 1 to 4 seconds.
• Power consumption can be lowered further by adjusting power to exactly what is needed.
• Soldering iron tips and probes last longer.
• Damage to heat sensitive parts is eliminated. This makes for efficient circuit board repair.
