Good day,
Which soldering iron does this attachment fit?
I bought the "Purecrea USB soldering iron SI-168U 8W" especially for this purpose and the attachment does not fit. I assumed that it would fit because it is the only Purecrea soldering iron in the Galaxus range.

Accepted Answer

I soldered the bit (adaptor) to the rod of my soldering machine with the tin...
When I want to insert the threads into a 3d printed part I set the temperature on the soldering machine for example 150C, and it will melt the plastic, and won't melt the tin which keeps the adaptor in place. It's stupid, but it works :(
