Conical Solder Tip 0.8 mm
This conical solder tip measures 0.8 mm and is designed for use with ETP equipment. It suits technicians and hobbyists who need a fine point for precise joints on small components. The tip provides focused heat delivery for detailed electronics work. It is not intended for buyers who require larger tips for heavy-gauge wiring or high-mass soldering tasks.
Practical limits of the conical interface
The narrow 0.031 in diameter concentrates heat on a small area, which limits the amount of solder that can be melted at once. Thermal recovery slows when working on larger pads or ground planes because the tip stores less energy. Users needing faster throughput on bigger joints should select a tip with greater mass and surface contact.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 0.031 in or 0.8 mm version of this Plato conical tip?
They are the same size expressed in different units, so either listing refers to the identical 0.8 mm diameter tip.
What does the 0.8 mm diameter mean for precision soldering work?
The fine 0.8 mm conical point concentrates heat on small pads and narrow leads, making it suited for dense board work and detailed joints.
