Choosing to use a silk ball to clean impurities from the tip of the soldering iron is a good way, but should the silk ball choose brass wool or stainless steel wool? Which of the two cleaning tools is better and less harmful to the tip of the soldering iron? Let's discuss which type of cleaning skein to choose:
1.Brass wool: Although less aggressive than the Inox Wool, it is easily subject to deterioration. It will cause metal particles and fibers to contaminate the working area. Customers have refused to use Brass Wool due to this reason. Brass wool was first used in industry many years ago and it became standard use in industry and was used by many operators.
2.Inox Wool: It is more aggressive than the Brass wool and requires more care when being used. It is the most effective when used less aggressively and therefore minimizing the abrasions – Remember! Less Is Better. As well as being more effective, Inox is much more durable than Brass. It is more flexible, less fragile, and as a result, reduces the amount of particles and contamination of the work area. In tests we found it very resistant to breakage and it contained less than 10 times the amount of broken particles than in Brass wool.
In addition to more efficient cleaning power, Inox Wool is more durable than Brass wool. It's more flexible and resilient, with a harder material, and is effective at reducing broken particles and contaminants. In our tests, we found it to be very resistant to breakage with 10 times less broken particles than a brass tip cleaning wire ball.
The above is our discussion and answer to the question "Which ball is good for cleaning the soldering iron tip?". After reading this, you should understand the choice of the ball for cleaning the soldering iron tip. It is a long-term and challenging process for soldering.
