JBC soldering tips for JBC stations, in the C115, C120, C210, C245 and C470 series, in cone, chisel, tweezer and other shapes, plus the T245-A soldering pen. In a JBC tip the heater and the tip are one part, so heat travels a short path and the tip recovers its temperature quickly.

What the one-piece heater means in use
With an ordinary tip, the temperature drops when it touches a joint and you wait for it to recover before the next one. JBC integrates the heater and the tip, which shortens the heat path, so recovery is faster than in a conventional design. In practice this lets you solder at a lower set temperature, which lowers the risk of heat damage to parts and shortens the time per joint.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Heating system | One-piece design in which the tip is the heater, with very little heat loss |
| Recovery | Returns to the set temperature within seconds, for dense, continuous soldering |
| Tip shapes | Cone, chisel, tweezer and others, chosen by joint size and part type |
| Handles | C245 tips go with the T245 general-purpose handle; C210 tips go with the T210 handle for fine detail work. Choose the tip by the handle of your station |
Where it is used
- Fine soldering and rework of small SMT parts (0402 and 0201)
- Battery modules and connector terminals
- Repair of consumer and communication devices
- Rework of automotive electronic modules
- Heavy-duty soldering that needs more power
Using and caring for tips
- Choose the tip with the largest contact area with the part. A bigger contact area transfers heat better, so you can solder at a lower temperature.
- Tin the tip before putting it away, to stop oxidation. Clean off residue regularly, and do not scrape it with metal tools or clean it with mechanical or chemical means. Use brass wire cleaners, an automatic tip cleaner or a sponge.
- Do not use the tip as a screwdriver or a pry tool. Too much force damages both the part and the tip.
- Use a station with sleep and hibernate modes. The manufacturer’s literature says sleep mode lowers the tip temperature below the melting point of solder when the tool is in its stand, and that this can extend tip life up to five times.
- Use only as much flux as you need. Too much flux can corrode the parts.

A JBC tip must be used with a station of the matching model. When you inquire, please tell us (1) the model of the JBC station you use, (2) the tip shape you need, and (3) the quantity. We check the tip against your station model before quoting. Request a quote →
