The Beau Tech SH-20A Double-Ended Soldering Aid is a specialized 8-inch hand tool designed for the precise assembly, manipulation, and rework of electronic components on printed circuit boards. It features a straight flat reamer on one end and a straight fork tip on the other, providing versatile functionality for intricate soldering tasks.
Constructed with Swedish hardened tool steel ends, the tool is finished in a hard satin chrome that inherently repels solder, preventing unwanted adherence during operation. The solid rock maple wooden handle is treated with a burn-resistant varnish to withstand incidental contact with soldering irons. The handle's hexagonal shape ensures a secure grip while preventing the tool from rolling off the workbench. Additionally, the wooden construction inherently acts as an insulator between the two steel ends, making the tool ESD-safe for use around sensitive electronics.
