Metcal SMC 1.5 x 16.5 mm Hoof Soldering Iron Tip for use with CV-500 Systems, CV-5200, CV-H1-AV Solder Hand Pieces,

SMC- solder tip cartridges are the standard soldering tip range for the Metcal CV-5200, CV-500, MX-500, MX-5200 and MX-5200 series soldering systems.

All cartridges are available in 4 temperature ranges.

• 600-series nominally 330 ˚C.


• 700-series nominally 390 ˚C.


• 800-series nominally 440 ˚C.


• 900-series nominally 470 ˚C.

The temperature/series is designated by the by the first digit in the numerical part of the part number:

• 600 will all be CVC-/SMC-0xx.


• 700-series will be CVC-/SMC-7xx.


• 800-series will be CVC-/SMC-8xx.


• 900-series will be CVC-/SMC-9xx.

Metcal recommends the 700-series for many general applications.

The 600-series for light load or low temperature applications.
800/900-series for high temperature and thermally demanding applications.

Can be used with leaded and lead-free solder.

The Metcal “SmartHeat®-Technology“ will adjust delivered power during soldering to suit the application.

• 600 = Temperature Sensitive applications.


• 700 = FR4/Fibre Glass, for most standard applications.

SMC Series applications - Multi-lead speed soldering cartridge for Gull-Winged components, SOP, QFP.
