    What soldering station should I purchase for 900M-TJ-I tip?

    hello.
    A few months ago,I have purchased 0.1mm Soldering Iron Tip of below aliexpress link,But I noticed that It is totally impossible to use this 0.1mm iron tip in the T12 soldering station
    https://ko.aliexpress.com/item/4001275635593.html
    Is there any good soldering station which is possible to use 900M-TJ-I tip and have inexpensive or reasonable price in aliexpress?
    Any reply would be appreciated.

    What comes first to buy- the tip or the soldering iron?
    I don't have success with needle tips or conical tips, they are poor for heat transfer because they are so thin. They have to be copper as well, not steel. T12 JL02 is 0.2mm
    The Hakko 936 uses 900 tips, the Hakko FX-888 uses T18 that are a bit smaller ID for a tighter fit to the heating element.
    I do not know what Ali store has decent clone stations for those.

      I have T12 ILS tip which is 0.15mm,But it is somewhat big for soldering 0.0x mm wire,because the gap between adjacent tracks is very very close to each other.So I think If I can make use of 0.1mm iron tip It would be much easier to soldering very tiny wire

        I find that is a technical approach to fine soldering - a fine needle tip and do one wire/pin at a time. It didn't work for me due to not enough heat even when cranked up. Copper wire does take a lot of heat.
        Instead I use a knife tip and let the solder stick to the tip, do many pins at once. It doesn't bridge to adjacent pins if you drag it.

          yes, lots of flux and drag a ball of solder along what you want to solder lengthways.

            Use Hakko original 900M tip.

              900m and it's clones will NOT get the heat to the end of a 0.1mm tip.

              if you have a T12 iron then look on aliexpress, some companies are making tips for microsoldering that are smaller than the ones from hakko
