Brass Tip Cleaner

Brass Tip Cleaner – Essential Dry-Cleaning Tool for Soldering Iron Maintenance

Maintain peak soldering performance and extend the life of your valuable irons with the essential Brass Tip Cleaner. This indispensable workshop tool provides a fast, dry, and effective method to remove oxidation, flux residue, and old solder from your soldering iron tip without water. By using soft brass shavings instead of a wet sponge, this brass tip cleaner prevents thermal shock, retains tip temperature for consistent heat transfer, and significantly reduces oxidation—leading to better solder flow, sharper joints, and longer tip lifespan. A must-have for any aviation electronics bench, drone repair station, or FPV workshop.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Dry Cleaning Action: Plunge your hot iron into the brass shavings to instantly wipe away debris. This method, recommended by major soldering equipment manufacturers, prevents the rapid cooling and micro-cracking caused by wet sponges.

• Prevents Oxidation & Thermal Shock: Eliminates water contact, which is a primary cause of tip oxidation and degradation, keeping your tips tinned and ready for precise work on Flight Controller pads or FPV Camera wires.

• Maintains Optimal Tip Temperature: Allows you to clean and return to soldering instantly without waiting for the iron to reheat, improving workflow efficiency when assembling or repairing Drone Kits and Electronic Modules.

• Durable & Safe Construction: Features a heavy-duty black base holder filled with low-abrasive brass shavings that clean effectively without damaging the iron’s protective plating. Includes a non-slip silicone pad for bench stability.

• Works with All Soldering Irons: Compatible with standard conical, chisel, and hoof tips used in electronics soldering. Ideal for use alongside temperature-controlled stations for PCB Repair and Aviation Electronics assembly.

• Clean & Eco-Friendly: The process is smokeless, tasteless, non-toxic, and produces no water waste, making it a cleaner choice for any workspace.

How to Use for Best Results:

1. Heat your soldering iron to its working temperature (e.g., 350°C for leaded solder).

2. Tin the tip with fresh solder.

3. Before each joint, gently stab the tip into the brass shavings several times to remove old solder and oxidation.

4. Re-tin the tip lightly before setting the iron down. This cycle preserves the tip. For comprehensive maintenance, use alongside High-Quality Solder Wire and Tip Tinner.

Perfect For: Aviation Technicians, Drone Builders, RC Hobbyists, Electronics Students, and Professional Repair Shops.
