## Description

Upgrade your Hakko with a new tip

You'll get better & faster solder joints and the whole process will be much more enjoyable. This tip fits the [FX-888D](https://core-electronics.com.au/hakko-fx-888d-digital-soldering-station-plus-free-extra-tip-conical-t18.html) analog and digital irons, and they're fast to swap, takes only 30 seconds to change out. All the tips are good for either lead or lead-free (simply set the iron to the temperature required for the solder you are using).

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.
