A key element in the arsenal of any radio amateur is a soldering iron. It serves as an indispensable assistant when connecting electronic parts by heating. When choosing such a tool, they are primarily determined with the power of the device. To work with transistors and microcircuits, you can use models up to 100 W, and for soldering and tinning of thick enough wires, a power of 150-200 W is desirable. When it comes to melting solid metals, then models with an increased power of more than 200 watts are required.
The shape of the tip is also of great importance, depending on the type of tip, the purpose of the soldering iron also changes. The category of soldering irons also includes devices designed for connecting polypropylene pipes and used in the repair of utilities.
We have compiled a list of the best soldering irons based on expert opinions and reviews from real customers. Our recommendations will help you make the best choice for your requirements and desires. There are many competitors on the world market for equipment, but we have selected the best manufacturers and recommend that you pay special attention to them:

For soldering
The main advantages
- The small operating power of the soldering iron of 100 W is due to its intended use for the repair of electronic circuits and the rather delicate work of replacing elements
- To make the workflow as convenient and efficient as possible, the designers created a two-component ergonomic handle
- Convenient foldable stand is an integral part of a comfortable workflow
- The grounding conductor supplied with the power cord ensures safe operation even in the event of damage to the insulation. Also, this wire removes unnecessary static
- The tip of a soldering iron, such as "DSS", wedge-shaped, perfectly maintains the operating temperature and is convenient when performing the most delicate soldering

The main advantages
- The cone-shaped tip of the soldering iron is made of high-quality combined steel, which does not lose its technical and operational qualities with prolonged use
- The two-component plastic and rubber handle provides perfect ergonomics and does not slip out of hands during active soldering
- The protective cap neutralizes the risk of burns when the palm is placed close to the main heating part of the device
- The standard set of the kit includes, in addition to the main device, also a stand and solder
- Double electrical protection reduces the risk of short circuits and breakage of the soldering iron due to voltage surges in the household network

Type: contactless
The main advantages
- Cordless butane-fueled soldering iron with six different tips. Perfectly performs such types of work as soldering, burning out, hot stamping, removing old paint
- The undoubted advantage of the soldering iron is its offline operation. Combustion can be maintained for 90 minutes
- The maximum operating power is comparable to a 120W soldering iron. A piezo device is used for ignition
- When operating in burner mode, the temperature reaches 1200 degrees Celsius. It is quite possible to work with lead and silver, you can easily solder the car radiator
- The soldering iron is completed with six attachments for various purposes (skin cutting, burning, etc.) and a wrench for fixing the attachments and catalyst
