260 Watt & 200W Professional Soldering Gun Kit with Three Tips and Solder in Carrying Case | D550PK

I grew up watching my father use one of these, so I finally decided it was time to get one for myself. His Weller soldering gun has lasted for decades without any issues, which says a lot about the durability and reputation of these tools. This kit comes with everything needed to get started, including multiple tips, solder, and a carrying case to keep it all organized. The gun heats up quickly and has plenty of power for heavier soldering jobs that smaller irons can struggle with. There’s definitely a bit of nostalgia involved for me, but it’s also a genuinely useful tool that has stood the test of time. Overall, I’m very happy with it. If you want a powerful soldering gun from a brand with a long track record of reliability, this is a great choice 👍

TH04JUN2026 • NOT A Toy; Nice, Heavy Feel Just Like The Ones From 50 Years Ago. Very Impressed. Works Flawlessly So Far. Nice, Long Cord, But I'm Irritated That The Carrying Case Is So Cramped. An Extra 2" X 4" Empty Recess Would Have Cost Only A Few Extra Pennies, And Would Hold A Little Flux, A Little Solder, And Small 4" Tool To Secure Wires (In Case You're Not An Octopus Or Have No Help) .... A Thoughtlessly Blown Opportunity. Still, The Soldering Gun Itself Seems Exceptionally Well-Built Compared To Other Tools These Days. "Thanks, Weller,🙂!! Improve That Carrying Case(😖)!!" 5 Out Of 5 Stars.

I have one and ordered another. These are very well built products and they work excellent. Was sent quickly.

I ordered this following a loss of patience with my "pencil" iron that works fine, but takes forever. Yes, those are aimed at the lighter electronic repair jobs, so as always, get the right tool for the job. This Weller is a BEAST by comparison. It's HEAVY, and has a pleasant "hum" when you engage the trigger. Worked like a champ. Three minor gripes. The trigger controls the high/low heat settings, with two detents. Inexplicably, "High" is the first detent, and to get "Low" you pull the trigger all the way in. Am I the only one who thinks this is a bit counter intuitive? Good thing the hum lets you know clearly which level you have selected. So do the lights...they are a bit brighter in "high"...when they work...out of the box the bulbs were not screwed in all the way, so at first I thought they were DOA. Twist twist and they came to life. The bulb sockets are a little loose in the case. Not sure that was pre-planned. But they are old school incandescent lamps (not LEDs), and the kit does not have spares. Might want to pick those up before you need them. Finally, the cord does not seem to have any tension protection/strain relief where it enters the gun. No grommet, no rubberized tail-like sheath covering the cord for a couple inches at the handle, just a wide open hole. For careful users in a clean shop, probably no big deal, but if you haul this around to job sites...if nothing else the hole will let unwanted stuff in. OK, maybe one more gripe...the case. Clear plastic front is great for marketing, but will not last unless you are very careful. Overall, does what I ask of it, and it was $25 cheaper than the very similar but higher power 300/200W D650. As others have noted, not the best for small, delicate electronic work where the pencil irons rule. Bigger wires, this thing rocks! First heat took about 20 seconds in "high", then after that, each subsequent pull on the trigger made liquid metal in under 10 seconds, but I never got the record setting 6 second melt others have reported. Great value in a tidy package. Just a little short on the details.

Not much has changed from the original design. I purchased this as a replacement for my 40 year old 8200. What I have noticed on first use was lack luster heat performance. Although this was easily rectified by tightening down the two set screws that affix the tip. Without a good solid connection, the current draw to the tip will hurt performance making the gun seem weak and under perform. Both lights were loose during shipping and needed a quarter turn. Other than that it works well.

Easy to use and very nice solder gun.

This kit looks great I CANNOT RECOMMEND BUYING IT AT ALL. First off, the gun has a 1-MINUTE 'ON' with 4-MINUTE 'OFF' cycle. Another reviewer noted this is not enough time to complete the work; this reviewer is correct. Was trying to reflow solder on a board to replace the ten micro fuses and even at 260 watts and added flux the solder would not flow. I know many boards are now WAVED SOLDERED, mine probably was and lead solder is still out there. I checked with the company who made the inverter I was replacing the fuses on, they said it was "low lead" solder. Secondly, the WELLER soldering light bulbs and sockets ARE NOT secured to the housing Third, the housing gets extremely warm, I had to wear a glove while trying to use it without success. I read the 'other' reviews before buying thinking it may be a 'bad batch' but I encountered all the same problems the other reviewers who gave poor reviews. When I got the D550PK one of the collars wasn't even on the on tip securing it to gun and the collar was loose, so were both light bulbs that look like bulb number 222. SO SAD. Not sure what happened to WELLLER but AVOID them! Choose another soldering gun manufacturer.

Very pleased with the performance. Have flux core solder at hand before using it the first time, tin the tip before using to protect the tip. Pull the trigger all the way in for lower setting and wipe the tip clean with a moist folded up paper towel or soldering sponge when the tip starts to look brownish. Keeping the tip clean and shiny with tinning and wiping might help it perform top notch. I haven't needed to use the high setting yet. Lower temps are supposed to increase tip life.

If purchasing in Europe be aware that it’s a 120V unit. It comes with an adapter but this is not specified anywhere in the description…. Little disappointed but it’s still a superior soldering iron.

This was a replacement for my old seller when she fell off the work bench. I was using the plastic cutter and had great results. I should have expected nothing less from a Weller

Magnifico y a un precio de ganga.

As I wanted it .. I found it good quality

当国では販売されてないのでここで入手できてうれしいです。 30年も探してた工具です。サイコ！！ 重さはあるが当然です。しっかりしたコイル構造ですからね。でも、スピードが圧倒的、高温度、サイコです！
