What is the diameter of the round indentation in the base of the stand? I want to see if my Hakko 599B solder tip cleaner (2-5/8" diameter) will fit.

My tape shows 2 7/16-just short of a half inch. Base is heavy-probably cast iron. Happy soldering!

The stand that came with mine has a 1.24" diameter holder. The open end of the horseshoe is about 7/8 th inch. The chrome piece will not fit through that opening, but the bristles do.

I dont know. I put it on a ryobi full size grinder. I also have a small ryobi hand grinder. It wouldnt fit.

if you go to S.R. Smith and use the board to stand guide it will list which product fits which stand. I also found this guide or a link to it on some of the pool suppliers that carry/represent S R Smith products. My specific stand needed a board with holes 12" apart and the replacement board by S R Smith was pre-drilled, came with new mounting hardware, and replaced my old board perfectly. My general impression was that it was all about which stand you have and which boards fit that exact stand. Once you get that figured out you're golden.

The edge of the case is cradled into a notch in the base of the stand. That notch is lined with small rubberized tabs that grip, so I think you shouldn't have any problems.

Great Question - My 8" Burner that came out of my stove and the New one going back in was 8 3/4" Diameter. I guess it was close enough. Mine is working just great now, the old one had a connector wire burned out but I went ahead and replaced it with the new one. Wife is Happy Now.

You will have to use their tips. I don't use the soldering part of the unit. I have two Weller soldering stations. I only use the hot air part of the unit for removing surface mount components. It works great for that purpose.

I bought this to replace OE unit for my HP Pavilion and have had no problems. Sorry can't help with the tip size.

We used a 1/4 inch bit for glass/ceramic, not the pointy tip, but the round tip, fits perfect ! Good Luck

Hello Carl,I believe the bottom portion of the fusion razor is too wide to fit the base of this stand.

As I measure it on an unused tip, the inside diameter is 3/4in. Hope this helps. MB

Hi Greg!Thanks for the response. I can't seem to find this stand at any major retailer. :/ Any other ideas?

To answer your question directly, it is not madatory but it does help. Tinning the tip(s) only takes a small amount of solder and helps the solder heat and flow easier. Just allow the iron to get hot, apply a bit of solder and then wipe clean. Use a rosin core solder with a thickness appropriate for the job. On circuit boards use a thin diameter (.093 or smaller) and then larger as the wire diameter increases. Hope this helps, I was a NASA certified solderer 40+ years ago when I worked in the R&D Lab on the Apollo program.

The majority of the length of the pole is 1 1/2 inch diameter, however the section that fits inside the stand or an extension pole is a tapered to 1 3/8 inch diameter. The stand should be adjustable with some type of adjustment screw or knob to fit securely in the base. I have had no problems fitting to a variety of commercially available stands.

In my opinion, this soldering iron is of terrible quality. I bought one and it was VERY poorly put together.I ended up going with a Hakko. Check out the Hakko 951 or the Hakko 888.

You got it. As to why it has a smaller hexagon on the other side, I can't really say. It doesn't fit anywhere on the the stand. but over time the middle scree may loosen and you can use that wrench to tighten it.

I'm not familiar with Hakko iron, but mine is a small 30 watt pencil iron. If you have an expensive iron you likely have a soldering station anyway. If in doubt fill the underside with magnets enough to hold it down. Use your ingenuity. This is a simple but effective and sturdy holder. Did I mention economic?
