Electronic Temperature Control for Precise Performance

No matter what your soldering job is, the WESD51's electronic control system lets you set the temperature you need to get the job done right. The soldering temperature is adjustable from 350 to 850 degrees Fahrenheit and is accurately measured to within nine degrees. And the WESD51's innovative built-in heater and sensor combination offers quick heat-up times and temperature recovery for better heat control over the course of your job.

The WESD51's wireless temperature lockout prevents you from raising the temperature beyond what is recommended for a specific workpiece, board, or component. This eliminates the possibility of damaging components by accidentally setting the temperature too high for the job.

More About Weller

Weller Manufacturing Company was founded in 1945 as a family partnership near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. Over the years, manufacturers of many types of products – from televisions to washing machines – came to rely on Weller for its quality and reliability. The Weller brand has a long history of innovation. In the 1950's new technology from Weller maintained heat better while lowering energy consumption. Weller continued its innovation for years to come. Legend has it that Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak hand-soldered the circuit boards of the very first Apple computers with Weller tools.

Today, most of the manufacturing for Weller happens at one of two locations. Besigheim, Germany and Queretaro, Mexico. Virtually every major manufacturer of consumer electronics equipment uses Weller tools. Go with the brand that has stood the test of time. Happy soldering!

Customers are mixed about the size of the soldering station. Some mention that it's not too big and is easy to maneuver, while others say that the tip is too big for solder chips and headers, and the default head is too wide for small components. The product is solidly built, and fits the pencil very well. However, some customers feel the small print and instructions for calibration leave a lot to be desired, and that the transformer takes up a large amount of space on their table.

"...I found the default head too wide for small components (0201s). I purchased a new head - Weller 1/32" x 0.8 for this application...." Read more

"...The pencil itself is small and lightweight and very easy to manuever. The cord also wont melt with intermittent contact with the tip...." Read more

"...order smaller tips, though, because the 1/16 inch tip it came with is too big for soldering chips and headers...." Read more

"...a 5 star but the station came with only one tip and that tip was of a size and style that I do not use...." Read more

Great and HIGHLY-RECOMMENDED soldering iron
5 Stars
Great and HIGHLY-RECOMMENDED soldering iron
This is an EXCELLENT soldering station that comes with a soldering iron, digital control station, hot iron holder with sponge, and a magnetic pen to lock the temperature. The heat-up time on this unit is great, and it gets to temperature in approximately 20 seconds (at 525f). The digital readout is very nice and the temperature control is great. I take the tip and pre-heat joints and I can actually watch the temperature of the tip go down a few degrees as the joint heats, and then I solder when the temperature is back up. This ensures that you will not get a cold-solder joint.The temperature never seems to vary when you are not touching a cold workpiece, and it comes back to temperature very quickly when heating your workpiece. The digital display allows you to precisely set your temperature for the proper melt point of your solder, so you don't overheat or smoke.The pen is very comfortable and I have had no fatigue when working long hours on a project (building a guitar amplifier head) that I am finishing now.I would highly recommend getting a good tip cleaner though. I greatly prefer something like the Hakko 599B-02 Solder Tip Cleaning Wire and Holder for keeping my tips clean. It doesn't really matter which cleaning wire you buy, but the one I listed is what I use and it works great.I attached a picture of the project I am working on. All the work was done with this station and I couldn't be happier with it.
