This great new innovation by Pepetools will help make soldering platinum easier than ever. The long, rigid Tungsten Carbide tip comes to a sharp point thanks to an intricate and precise grinding process. The innovation doesn't stop with the tip, the machined aluminum handle is strategically engineered to dissipate the heat and keep your hand cool during soldering or welding processes.
