Any tradesman worth their salt will tell you, "If you want a job to turn out right, you've got to start with the right materials." We incorporate that philosophy into our soldering tips. Every American Beauty Paragon soldering tip starts with a solid core of Tellurium Copper. We know of no better alloy that combines the characteristics of high thermal conductivity with corrosion resistance required for effective soldering.
Subsequently, all tips then undergo a multitude of processes that include iron cladding, nickel plating, chrome coating and pre-tinning. Each process is conducted in a clean environment to prevent contamination and ensure proper material adherence. The end result is a soldering tip that provides optimal performance over a long life span.
