The Hakko FX-888D is our go to recommendation for a high-quality soldering iron that has all the features and specs you'd normally find in a much more expensive iron. The FX-888D is incredibly easy to use with a digital readout and interface requiring only two buttons for usage. With this, you can set the temperature, create up to 5 presets for different solder profiles, and set a password to avoid accidental setting changes.

The FX-888D is compatible with T18 series tips and has a 30% increase in heater output compared to the standard Hakko 936/937.

Tech Specs:

  • Comes with a Conical Tip Shape-B (No.T18-B)
  • 65W iron power consumption
  • Temperature range 50-480ºC
  • ±1ºC temperature stability whilst idle
  • 26VAC output voltage
  • Dimensions: 100mm x 120mm x 120mm

Shape BC/C
This type has a shape like a cone or a column cut at a slant, which allows users to select the cut surface size depending on the workpiece.
It is used for drag soldering and pre-tinning of lead wires.

Shape B
All-round type which can be used from any direction and is easy to hold at any position.
Possible to solder any surface from small to large.

Shape D
This type has a shape like a flat-blade screwdriver and is capable of soldering by applying the tip in 2 ways: line and face.
The width (size of tip) suitable for the workpiece can be selected, and it can be used for any soldering work.

Shape I
This type has a thin conical end and is an ultrafine tip which is best suited for soldering at narrow pitches, etc.
It is the best for soldering micro components such as 0603, etc. and for repairing high-density-mounting P.W.Bs. such as in cellular phones, etc.

Shape J
This type differs from Shape B and I by bending the tip end and is capable of soldering by applying the tip in 2 ways: face and point.
It is used for drag soldering and correction of bridging.

Shape K
This type has a shape like a knife and is capable of soldering by applying the tip in 3 ways: line, face, and point. It is used for soldering at narrow pitches, correction of bridging, and drag soldering.
