The M12™ soldering iron delivers fast application speeds by reaching operational temperature in under 18 seconds and maintaining an optimized temperature throughout the most demanding applications. The heat indicator utilizes REDLINK™ Intelligence to notify users when the tool is ready-to-use and safe-to-store, eliminating the guesswork. The 3-stop pivoting head provides unmatched access by allowing users the ability to adapt the tool for the application and solder in more confined spaces. The M12™ soldering iron powered by REDLITHIUM™ battery technology delivers up to 40 minutes of run-time on a M12™ compact battery pack.
