M-31C Temperature Controlled Solder Pot 80mm 280W

The M-31C is a bench solder pot with an 80 mm titanium-alloy crucible and a 280 W heater, made for tinning wire ends, melting solder and desoldering through-hole parts. It earns its place in workshops that prepare many leads at once — battery leads, motor wires, wiring harnesses — where a quick dip tins each end faster and more evenly than an iron.

Key features

• Titanium-alloy crucible resists corrosion from molten solder and flux and stays thermally stable through long sessions
• 280 W heater melts a charge quickly and holds temperature under repeated dipping
• Dial temperature control adjustable up to 500°C, for leaded and lead-free solder
• Insulated base limits heat transfer to the workbench
• Power switch with indicator lamp and an attached mains cord

Run the pot only as hot as the alloy needs — tin-lead solder melts at about 183–190°C and common lead-free alloys at about 217–227°C — because extra heat speeds up dross build-up; skim the surface before each dip. The European-style plug may need an adapter for your socket. Keep the pot on a heat-safe surface, never leave it unattended while hot, and let it cool fully before moving it.
