How to use Shape D + Examples
This type has a shape like a flat-blade screwdriver and can be soldered 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.
It is suitable for soldering at narrow pitches by using the line portion of the soldering tip. The T12 Series has 10 variations of shape D with line width from 0.5mm to 1.2mm
Soldering Tiny Chip Parts (0603)

Put the tip end to the board. *Soldering tip in the picture is T30-D06 with an N2 system iron for pre-heating effect. NOTE: Some IC are specified by the manufacturer not to be touched on the electrode by tip end. |
Soldering Chip Parts
 |
Put the tip end to the board and drag the tip slowly while feeding solder. NOTE: Some IC are specified by the manufacturer not to be touched on the electrode by tip end. |
Drag Soldering
 |
Put the tip end to the leads and drag the tip slowly downwards while feeding solder. Take note of when to feed solder to prevent excess solder. NOTE: Apply flux to the leads and land pads before soldering. It helps to prevent problems such as solder bridges. |
Pre-tinning Lead Wire
 |
Put the cut surface to the lead and drag the tip slowly while feeding solder. |
Point Soldering
 |
Pin Through Hole (PTH) 1. Put the tip end to the board and the through-hole at one time to heat them. |
 |
Quad Flat Pack (QFP) 1. Put the tip end to the leads |
Soldering Cup Terminals
 |
1. Place the lead wire into the cup terminal. NOTE: Removing gold plating of terminal and pre-tinning lead wire will make solder spread over the terminal easily and prevents soldering defect. |
Melting and Removing Coil Coatings
 |
1. Put the cut surface to the coil and terminal at one time to heat them. |
