Direct Replacement for Hakko & 936‑Series Stations – Fully compatible with Hakko 936/937, FX‑888, FX‑888D, Quick 936/936A/969, AT936/936b/AT937/AT938/AT969, YIHUA 936/937/938/939/8786/852, Bakon 936/937/969/852D/952D, and all other brands of 936/937 soldering stations.
Precision Dimensions – 43.5 mm total length (approx. 43 mm), 6.5 mm outer diameter, 4.1 mm inner diameter – standard 900M fit for secure contact with the heating element.
Black Anti‑Oxidation Coating – A proprietary surface treatment on the barrel reduces oxidation at high temperatures, minimises solder creep (tin crawling up the body), and makes visual inspection of tip cleanliness easier.
Multi‑Layer Plating System – High‑purity copper core, iron layer for wear resistance, nickel layer for corrosion protection, and a chromium layer for oxidation resistance, topped with the black coating for added durability.
Cost & Performance – Offers 30–50 % cost savings versus genuine Hakko 900M tips, while delivering 20,000–35,000 solder joints under standard conditions.
Bulk & Custom Options – Volume discounts available. We also produce custom shapes, lengths, or plating specifications based on your drawings (MOQ applies).
Each tip starts with a C1100 copper core (purity ≥ 99.90 %, IACS ≥ 98 %, thermal conductivity ≈ 380–400 W/(m·K)), formed in a single operation using precision CNC Swiss‑type automatic lathes. This ensures exceptional thermal response and uniform heat transfer.
The core then undergoes 72‑hour pulse electroplating – a controlled process that deposits:
An iron layer (determines corrosion resistance and tip life),
A nickel layer (prevents rust),
A chromium layer (enhances high‑temperature oxidation resistance).
Finally, the barrel receives a black anti‑oxidation coating, which further protects the shaft from oxidation during lead‑free soldering and prevents solder from climbing up the tip. The black finish also contrasts with solder residue, making it easier to spot and clean contamination quickly.
Long Service Life – Under test conditions (350–400 °C, PCB soldering, proper maintenance), each tip can produce 20,000 to 35,000 solder joints. Actual life depends on operating temperature, flux type, and solder alloy.
Consistent Quality – Every production lot uses identical copper purity, plating thickness, and coating processes, ensuring predictable thermal performance, excellent wetting, and no unexpected early failure.
Lower Total Cost of Ownership – Factory‑direct pricing eliminates branded markups, saving you 30–50 % compared to original Hakko 900M tips. For workshops and repair centres using dozens of tips monthly, the annual savings are substantial.
Customisation – Need a modified tip shape (chisel, conical, bent, knife), a different length, or special plating for aggressive fluxes? We produce custom 900M tips to your exact specifications – contact us for MOQ and lead time.
These tips are designed for general‑purpose soldering on Hakko and 936‑style stations, ideal for:
Electronics repair and service centres (mobile devices, gaming consoles, home appliances),
PCB assembly and rework for consumer electronics, IoT devices, and industrial controls,
Lead‑free (SAC305) and leaded (Sn63Pb37) soldering processes,
Benchtop manual soldering with FX‑888 or 936 series stations,
Technical training labs and maker spaces needing durable, cost‑effective consumables.
The 43.5 mm length provides a balanced reach, while the 6.5 mm diameter supplies adequate thermal mass for through‑hole components and general SMT joints.
Daily Cleaning
Use a damp sponge (properly squeezed) for routine, gentle cleaning.
For stubborn black residue, use a brass wire ball – insert the tip diagonally and rotate twice without excessive force. Never use a stainless‑steel wire ball, which can scratch the plating.
Proper Maintenance
Before powering off, apply a generous layer of solder over the working end to protect it from oxidation (the “tin cap”).
Keep temperatures low – high temperatures accelerate corrosion and double oxidation rates. Recommended settings:
Lead‑free solder: 350 °C ± 10 °C
Leaded solder: 320 °C ± 10 °C
Never use files, sandpaper, or abrasives to clean blackened areas – this will destroy the thin plating layers.
Replace the tip immediately if you observe any of the following:
Pits or through‑holes appear on the working surface (visible as concave craters or tiny holes).
Solder creep / bridging – solder climbs up the barrel and cannot be wiped off.
Significant drop in thermal efficiency – the tip cannot melt solder even at higher temperature settings.
Permanent blackening – the tip remains black and refuses to wet with solder, even after attempted reactivation with flux and fresh solder.
What materials and coatings are used in these black 900M tips?
We use high-purity copper cores with iron plating (wear resistance), nickel plating (corrosion protection), and a proprietary black anti-oxidation coating on the barrel. This coating reduces surface oxidation and tin creep, extending tip life compared to standard silver tips.
Do you offer custom black 900M tip shapes, lengths, or plating specifications?
Yes. As a custom soldering tip manufacturer, we can modify tip geometry (chisel, conical, bent, knife, hoof), total length, or apply thicker coatings for aggressive flux environments. Provide a drawing, original sample, or intended application – our engineering team will advise. Custom orders require minimum quantity – contact our sales team.
What are the exact dimensions? Which stations are compatible?
Total length: 43mm. Outer diameter: 6.5mm. Inner diameter: 4.1mm. Our black 900M soldering tip is compatible with Hakko FX-888D, FX-888, 936 series stations, and universal 936-style soldering stations that accept standard 900M tips. Confirm your station’s heater bore size before ordering.
How does service life compare to original Hakko 900M tips?
Under identical soldering conditions (350°C, continuous use with proper maintenance), our black coating and multi-layer plating deliver comparable or longer life – typically 15,000 to 25,000 solder joints depending on tip shape, solder alloy, and flux chemistry. The black coating provides additional oxidation resistance. We recommend a side-by-side trial on your bench or production line to verify performance.
How should we maintain these black 900M tips for maximum life?
Keep the tip tinned when the iron is idle (use station sleep mode if available)
Clean with brass wire or a damp sponge – avoid abrasive files or tip cleaners
The black coating does not require special cleaning, but keep the barrel free of solder splashes
Replace immediately if the tip becomes pitted, deformed, or cannot wet properly
Store unused tips in a dry, anti-static container to prevent oxidation
For high-volume repair centers, schedule weekly tip inspections
We supply detailed maintenance guides with bulk orders. The black coating may show slight fading over time – this is normal and does not affect soldering performance.
