With the iFixit Soldering Splint by your side, you don't have to wish you had a third-hand. This board is perfect for when you are joining two wires together, also known as splinting! 

Compact enough to fit into any electronics toolkit yet packed with utility, this tool ensures wires from 0.1mm to 4mm stay put, giving you the freedom to focus on the soldering itself.

Born from the collective wisdom of countless soldering veterans at iFixit, the Splint is built with silicone-based heat resistant materials and comes equipped with a magnetic attachment base, ensuring your work remains steady.

    Technical Details

    Specifications:

    • Adaptive Holding Capability: Designed to safely hold a range of wire sizes up to 4mm.
    • Heat Resilience: Silicone heat-resistant construction allows intermittent contact with hot soldering irons - up to 30 sec of direct contact with a 350 C soldering iron.
    • Magnetic Attachment: Integrated with neodymium magnets for flexible attachment on ferrous metal surfaces.
    • Efficient Design: Wide soldering surface caters to varied soldering irons and effectively contains solder drips for a cleaner work environment.
