Hakko bcm/cm tips for fx-888d
« on: December 15, 2024, 10:27:03 pm »
Hi All, any idea where to get this tip type? It has a hole in the middle for drag soldering.  I could not find it available for fx-888d.
Are there replacements that could work with this soldering station? 

Thanks!

Jensen claims to have 1pcs 900M-T-3CM in stock. You could also consider Plato HS-0530 or HS-0531.

I tried 900M-T-3CM once or twice and didn't really like it. I have the best results with an ordinary conical (!) tip and plenty of liquid flux. Your mileage may vary.

Thanks for the recommendation.

Do you drag the conical tip across the pins, or solder pins one by one?

Drag across.

Single pin is not needed unless you are fixing the chip in place, or cleaning up a single bad joint or something.

I drag across, then inspect and individually redo any pins that have bridges or look questionable.
