The Bench Basics Compressed Large Charcoal Block is the ideal traditional soldering surface. Charcoal is perfect for soldering on due to its heat reflective properties, which help effectively reach the optimum temperature quicker, and create a cleaner soldering environment. When placed under a flame, this solid carbon material causes a reducing atmosphere by absorbing the oxygen surrounding the piece; preventing oxidation and fire-stain. Use this specially compressed charcoal block for soldering smaller pieces or making minor repairs to joins. Simple shapes can also be carved out of the block and melted into finished forms from pieces of metal.

Natalie ★★★★★

The compressed charcoal holds up way better than the loose blocks I used before, and the heat reflection really does speed up soldering. It’s a solid upgrade for my bench.

Isabella ★★★★★

Finally got this for my jewelry bench and the compressed charcoal holds up way better than the loose blocks I used before. It reflects heat nicely so my solder flows smoothly, and the large size gives me plenty of room to work.

Grace D. ★★★★★

The heat reflection is the real selling point—my solder flows evenly without scorching the piece underneath. The block is dense and solid, so it doesn’t shift or crumble mid-work. This one’s a keeper for any bench.
