60W Digital Soldering Iron Heat Set Insert Tool with Extra Soldering Tips and Heat Set Insert Tips

Perfect for soldering projects. Just as good for inserting brass retainers in 3d printed projects. Quality is good and iron heats up quickly. Nice to have temp displayed. Helps when inserting brass inserts. Nice selection of soldering tips and brass insert heat tips

I use these to do heat inserts for my 3-D prints for critical parts that are for an engineering company. This requires precise temperature controls and accuracy which I was able to achieve especially by using the included tool tips. I was very happy about the presentation about this product and how easy it is to use and most important how fast it speed heats up, very easy to assemble and everything fit perfectly

Works excellent! Recommended!

Got this explicitly for heat insert use for 3D printing, and it has worked excellent with PLA. The temperature controls seem reasonable, heats up reasonably fast, and it's simple and easy to use. I've only had it for a few months but a great value so far.

Revising my review. User error, works fine.

I'm pretty impressed with this, especially for the price. You just dial up what temperature you want and it holds it, Fahrenheit or Celsius. Small and light and gets into tight places. Comes with a variety of tips. The 60 watt rating seems to be honest though it's hard to measure accurately with a Kill-a-Watt meter because of the elctronic control. I Don't really have a way to check the temperature calibration but it solders what I want to solder.

Ive put this thing through the ringer. So far i would estimate about 800+ uses and its still going strong. I typically only have it on for 15-20 minutes and the included tips work great for most of the Amazon threaded inserts. This one is not special but it works perfectly for what I bought ug for. Would buy again if it breaks.

I'm actually amazed this thing works as well as it does. I bought this mainly for doing threaded inserts for 3D printing but also to replace my very old aging Radio Shack 15w soldering iron. This thing is small, easy to use, and most importantly versatile. I haven't touched that old radio shack one and I'm probably going to throw it out at this point since even if this on dies I'd just buy another. My friend has a big fancy $140 soldering iron and I'd put this little thing up against it any day.

I use this tool for inserting heat inserts into 3d-printed parts, using its dedicated tips for various insert diameters. It does a perfect job if you get a bit of practice. You need to push the tool perfectly perpendicular to the part's surface (vertically) and push continuously with a steady hand, paying attention to the sinking insert. (The diameter of the hole provided by design in the part is aslo a matter of practice.) The tool heats up fast, under a minute, and allows a precise control of the temperature through its digital display. I did not use it yet for soldering, but it definitelly does a good job for heat inserts.

I used this to install brass inserts into a 3d printed trophy I made, so that it could be disassembled for transport. It worked perfectly. I haven't used it as a soldering iron yet, but it heats up extremely quickly and also cools down fast as well so I can't see any reason it wouldn't work for that unless you were trying to heat-sink a very large part where it couldn't keep up the temperature. But for fine electronics work there should be no issue.
