Soldering Irons & Stations are hand tools that generate controlled heat to melt solder for joining electrical components and light-gauge metals. A basic soldering iron is a pen-like tool with a heated tip. A soldering station includes a base unit with precise temperature control and stability, often with safety features and interchangeable tips. Key selection factors are wattage/temperature range, tip variety and compatibility, heat-up time, and ergonomics. For precision electronics work, an adjustable-temperature station is essential to prevent thermal damage to components. Proper tip maintenance (cleaning and tinning) is required for efficient heat transfer and joint quality.
