Product Description
The protective cap for the Hakko FX-601 Soldering Iron is a simple yet effective safety accessory designed to protect both your tools and your workspace after soldering. The cap easily attaches to your existing FX-601 soldering iron and can be quickly unscrewed whenever you are ready to work.
After soldering, simply unplug the iron and screw the cap back into place to safely cover the hot tip while it cools. Constructed from heat-resistant plastic, the cap helps prevent the soldering iron tip from coming into contact with power cords, tool handles, storage cases or other nearby equipment that could otherwise be damaged by residual heat.
In addition to protecting your gear, the cap also reduces the risk of accidental burns by shielding the exposed soldering tip during transport and cooldown. Compact, durable and easy to use, this protective cap is an ideal accessory for technicians, hobbyists and anyone who regularly stores or transports their soldering iron between jobs.
NOTE: While the plastic is heat-resistant, it is not intended to be used as a holder or installed while the soldering iron is on. Heat from the soldering iron will cause the cap to increase in temperature, so use caution.
