LEISTER has extended its welding range to include an iron soldering kit, which is designed to fit the existing TRIAC AT.
The TRIAC AT soldering kit equips the hot air tool for soft soldering work, including making materials watertight, and provides an alternative option to a standard open gas flame, permitting operators to work safely and efficiently.
The kit is recommended for all soldering work on roofs and gutters made of copper, chrome, and zinc.
The iron soldering kit is an environmentally-friendly solution to soldering using hot air, providing the operator with two robust tempered copper soldering tips – a chisel shaped tempered soldering tip, and an additional soldering tip that can be customised into the operators required shape – which are easily mounted on the heating tube of the TRIACT AT.
LEISTER also supplies an adapter to enable the soldering tip to fit onto the TRIAC AT, as well as a device stand to hole the TRIAC AT while taking a break from soldering. Using the device stand, the hot soldering tip does not touch the surface by accident.
Wind and dust make soldering with an open flame difficult and dangerous, however, with the electrically powered TRIAC AT soldering kit, it is robust enough to work through difficult weather environments, which an open gas flame could not maintain performance in terms of temperature in such conditions.
An innovative feature of the TRIAC AT is the flexibility it offers in adjusting the tool’s temperature range, preventing the metals from becoming too hot. The hot air tool contains close loop technology, which keeps the tool’s temperature regulated, specifically for when the voltage drops on a construction site to ensure precision throughout the work process.
Another benefit of the kit is that the soldering tip can be easily dismounted from the TRIAC AT to enable the hot air tool to be used for other work and purposes.
