YT-8271
SOLDERING GUN 30 W
Resistance soldering iron 30 w
A flask soldering iron YT-8271 in a traditional housing with a resistance heater powered directly from an AC outlet. The simplicity of the design makes the device almost failure-free, and with proper care of the soldering iron tip will serve for many years.
The power of the heater is enough to properly solder two copper wires or basic electronics in through-hole assembly technology. The high-quality coated copper tip provides faster heat accumulation and heat dissipation than standard tips, and the touch-friendly two-component handle with an anti-slip element further improves the safety of use.
- Power supply: 230V
- heat power: 30W
- head hole depth: about 50 mm
- max. blade diameter: 4.0 mm
Dimensions of the soldering iron included with the soldering iron:
- Length: about 75 mm
- Diameter: 3.8 mm
- Diameter of the tip of the soldering iron: 1.0 mm
Other dimensions:
- Total length with bent cable: 230 mm

The soldering iron takes about 3 minutes to heat up to 350°C.
How to take care of a soldering iron tip
The rotors of Yato flask soldering irons are coated with a material that reduces the oxidation of the tip. Long-term heating and mechanical damage gradually degrade the protective layer, then the tip quickly oxidizes resulting in problems with melting the solder joint. Instead of melting and sticking to the soldering tip, the tin peens and falls off. A proven way to take care of the tip is to tin it. When first warming up the soldering iron, apply a bit of tin to the tip of the spearhead and remove the excess, for example, with brass shavings. The resulting layer of tin protects against oxidation. It is good practice to tin the spearhead every time you finish a job.
Note
Cob soldering irons powered directly from a wall outlet should have a plug with a grounding pin and should be powered from a grounded outlet. Failure to ground the metal housing of the heater is a risk of electrocution, which in the best case will end in burns. All Yato brand flask soldering irons have a grounded plug, which is connected to the metal housing of the heater.
