A soldering iron, also known as a soldering device, is a tool for carrying out soldering work in which two metal parts are joined together by melting a solder. A soldering iron / soldering device is a device that generates heat to melt the solder, which then permanently fixes the parts to be joined. A soldering iron / soldering device comes in different sizes and power levels, depending on the application, and can be electric or gas-powered.
Typically, a soldering iron / soldering device consists of an insulated handle component, a heating unit and a soldering tip that transfers heat directly to the workpiece. Electric models work with heating resistors, while gas soldering irons are operated with butane gas. The soldering tips are often interchangeable and available in different shapes to cope with different tasks. A soldering iron / soldering device is mainly used in electronics, for example when repairing circuit boards, but also in metalworking, model making or jewelry making.
