Metcal PCT-100 Focussed Convection Pre-Heaters

The Metcal PCT-100 Focus Pre-heater produces targeted heat for improved speed and efficiency when soldering high thermal demand applications, including lead-free. Used for SMT and through-hole hand processes, the PCT-100 uses convection air heating to pre-heat a PCB, for better soldering, improved process control and increased productivity.

The PCT-100 Focus Pre-heater adds heat volume, without turning up the soldering iron temperature, to perform assembly tasks at the appropriate peak temperature without distorting the board and limiting thermal shock to the components.

Available with and without board holder.
