Hi guys

I hope you can help me. I need to change the tip on my Weller WS 81
soldering iron. I've always had the one that came with it, which is round
and pointy.

Should I get another one like it, or get one with a small flat surface near
the tip(chiesel?)?

There's a list here.

The one I'm thinking about is the WE-LTF 1.2mm. Is that small enough
for fine electronics, maybe even surface mount?

Any advice will be greatly appriciated !

Thanks

Nicholas

 

Yes, I would say to buy an assortment.
Exactly what size....would be determined by your project.

Don't worry, you'll never have TOO many tips.
