Key Features
Superior Power and Performance
- High Power Output (30–125W Equivalent): The Solderpro 180 delivers a power range equivalent to 30–125 watts, making it suitable for demanding tasks such as soldering heavy-gauge cables, battery terminals, and shielding works. Its high output ensures efficient performance for both small-scale and large-scale projects.
- Cordless and Portable Design: Powered by butane gas, the Solderpro 180 eliminates the need for an electrical power source, offering total portability. This makes it ideal for fieldwork, remote locations, or situations where access to electricity is limited. Its compact and lightweight design enhances mobility without compromising durability.
- Patented LEC (Liquid Energy Cell) Technology: The kit features Iroda’s patented Liquid Energy Cell (LEC) system, a removable and refillable fuel cell that enhances safety and reliability. The LEC system allows for easy refueling with standard butane, and its design ensures consistent performance even in low-temperature environments. The inclusion of two LEC fuel cells enables users to swap out an empty cell for a full one, minimizing downtime during extended work sessions.
- Rapid Ignition and Heat-Up: With auto-ignition and a piezo ignition system, the Solderpro 180 is ready to use in just 30 seconds after ignition, allowing for quick setup and efficient workflow. The tool reaches a maximum tip temperature of 750°F or 250–550°C for soldering and up to 2400°F or 1,300°C when used as a torch, catering to a wide range of applications.
Extended Operation
- Extended Operation Time: A single LEC fuel cell provides up to 100–140 minutes of continuous operation at mid-setting, making it suitable for long working hours without frequent refills. The tool’s quick-refill system supports any standard butane gas, ensuring ease of maintenance.
Multi-Function Versatility
- Versatile Multi-Function Tips: The kit includes four interchangeable tips, each designed for specific tasks:
-
PS-50 (7mm Chisel Tip): Ideal for heavy-duty soldering tasks, such as automotive and industrial cable repairs. Dimensions: Thickness 2.5mm, Top 9.7mm, Length 50mm, Bottom Ø14.5mm.
-
PS-60 (1.8mm Conical Tip): Perfect for precision soldering, suitable for electronics, PCBs, and small appliances. Dimensions: Tip Ø1.8mm, Length 50mm, Bottom Ø14.5mm.
-
PS-70 (Hot Air Blower Tip): Used for heat shrinking and 3D finishing. Dimensions: Top Ø10mm, Length 30.5mm, Bottom Ø14.5mm.
-
PS-80 (Deflector Tip): Designed for heat deflection tasks, such as heat shrinking and foam cutting.
- These tips can be swapped quickly using a fast-removal locking nut, allowing seamless transitions between soldering, torch, hot air blowing, and cutting functions.
-
Durable and Ergonomic Design
- Ergonomic and Durable Construction: The Solderpro 180 features a self-standing, cushioned pistol grip with a soft-touch finish and one-handed controls for enhanced comfort and ease of use. Its angled head design improves visibility and precision during operation. The body is constructed from high-tech polymers with an internal metal frame and ceramic components, ensuring durability and precision over extended use.
- Hands-Free Design: The self-standing design allows for hands-free operation, which is particularly useful for heat shrinking and other tasks requiring stable positioning. This feature enhances efficiency and safety during complex projects.
