Tips for General Soldering
Both Shape B and Shape D are suitable for most types of soldering and hence are recommended as a basic or beginner tip that every workstation should have.
High Heat Capacity
Heavy duty soldering tips are derived from the shapes B, D and I with a thicker radius along its body to increase heat storage. This makes it best suited for work requiring high heat capacity.
Melting and Removing Coil Coatings
Both shapes BC/C and D are suitable for melting and removing coil coatings due to the flat edge of the soldering tip.
