Cheap source for Hakko FX888(-D) cleaning sponge / rubber?
« on: October 02, 2014, 01:15:37 pm »
I somehow managed to destroy the cleaning sponge on my Hakko FX888-D. You can get replacements in a pack of 10 from Aliexpress, but I'd also quite like one of the rubber cleaners. I can't find a source for these other than dancap.co.uk which only accepts cheques or bank transfers (neither of which I can use easily - my 'youth' bank account doesn't give me a cheque book and I doubt I would be able to do a bank transfer). Does anyone have a place to get the A1559 sponge and/or B3474 rubber cleaner? I'm happy for it to be from China; I just have to be able to get it in the UK.

hi microbug, we have them both and no minimum quantity required. just check on our webshop.
they are very small and light so I guess we can give you fair shipment rate.
I have to check when I'll be back in office on Monday and then send you a private message with the indication.
FYI you can also get T18 tips one by one.

@neslikkim, maybe there are multiple sellers who sell to Norway, but I couldn't find any who sold the B3474 to the UK. On further checking (searching worldwide items), I found one B3474 seller.

@gmit77 thanks, I'll check it out.
