This great new innovation by Pepetools will help make soldering platinum easier than ever. The long, rigid Tungsten Carbide tip comes to a sharp point thanks to an intricate and precise grinding process. The innovation doesn't stop with the tip, the machined aluminum handle is strategically engineered to dissipate the heat and keep your hand cool during soldering or welding processes.

Exclusive features of this product include:

  • Tip Melting Point - 5,045 °F (2,785 °C) 
  • Tip Operating Length - 2.5"
  • Machined Aircraft Grade Aluminum - Yellow Anodized
  • Ergonomic  Handle Design - .4" Diameter with 4.5" of working length
  • Overall size of assembled Carbide Pick - 7"

This pick has been tested to withstand direct contact of a flame produced be an acetylene torch for over 5 minutes. During direct contact of heat to the carbide tip, the user will feel no residual heat on their hand.

Recommended use: for platinum soldering/welding or other high temperature alloy -  including but not limited to glass making.

Customer Reviews (4.4 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Alexander ★★★★★

I was skeptical about a soldering pick being worth the upgrade, but the tungsten carbide tip holds its edge through dozens of joints without dulling. The aluminum handle stays comfortable even during longer platinum work sessions.

Madison ★★★★★

The tungsten carbide tip keeps its sharp point after several hours of work, which I didn't expect from a pick this slender. The handle's grip is comfortable for long sessions, and the length gives me solid control when positioning small parts.

Ellie ★★★★☆

The handle really does stay cool even after repeatedly touching it, which is a nice relief. Tip is plenty sharp for precise work, though I wish the point were a touch finer for the tiniest platinum joints. Still, it's a solid upgrade over my old steel pick.
