  2. Soldering gun - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldering_gun

    A soldering gun is an approximately pistol -shaped, electrically powered tool for soldering metals using tin-based solder to achieve a strong mechanical bond with good electrical contact. The tool has a trigger-style switch so it can be easily operated with one hand. The body of the tool contains a transformer with a primary winding connected ...

  3. Soldering iron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldering_iron

    A gas-fired soldering iron. A soldering iron is a hand tool used in soldering. It supplies heat to melt solder so that it can flow into the joint between two workpieces.
