JBC C210001 Soldering Cartridge | Conical Ø 0.3 S2 | Precision C210 Series | T210 Handle
JBC C210001 Soldering Cartridge | Conical Ø 0.3 S2 | Precision C210 Series | T210 Handle
The JBC C210001 is a conical Ø 0.3mm S2 precision soldering cartridge from the C210 series, designed for use with the JBC T210 Precision Handpiece. The C210 series is engineered for precision soldering with medium power requirements — delivering the fine tip geometry, instant heat-up, and excellent heat transfer needed for microscope-assisted work, ultra-fine-pitch SMD components, and conventional precision electronics assembly. The 0.3mm conical tip provides a fine point for maximum visibility and precise heat placement on small pads, fine-pitch leads, and miniaturized components. Lasts up to 5 times longer than competing tips when used with JBC’s Sleep & Hibernation system.

Frequently Asked Questions
What applications is the C210001 (0.3mm conical) best suited for?
The C210001 is optimized for ultra-fine-pitch SMD soldering, 0201 and 01005 component placement and rework, QFN and BGA pad touch-up, microscope-assisted repair, and any application where a fine point tip is needed for precise heat placement with minimal risk of bridging adjacent pads. It is the go-to tip for precision rework technicians and engineers working under magnification.
What is the difference between the C210 and C245 cartridge series?
The C210 series uses a smaller, more compact cartridge form factor designed for the T210 Precision Handpiece — optimized for fine-pitch, microscope-level precision work with medium power. The C245 series is a larger cartridge for the T245 General Purpose Handle with higher thermal mass, suited for general SMD and through-hole work including high-power applications like ground plane soldering. C210 = precision/micro; C245 = general purpose/production.
What JBC stations are compatible with the C210001?
The C210001 is compatible with all JBC stations that support the T210 handle, including CD-2BE, DDSE, DSSE, DDE, and DI control units. Always verify T210 handle compatibility with your specific station model before ordering.
How does JBC’s Sleep & Hibernation extend tip life for the C210001?
When the T210 handpiece is set down in the stand, JBC stations automatically reduce tip temperature (Sleep) and after extended idle time drop to a lower hibernation temperature. This minimizes tip oxidation and flux carbonization during idle periods — the main cause of tip degradation on fine precision tips like the 0.3mm conical. The result is up to 5x longer cartridge life versus non-Sleep compatible systems.
Is the C210001 compatible with lead-free soldering?
Yes — JBC C210 cartridges are suitable for both leaded (SnPb) and lead-free (SAC305 and other alloys) soldering. For lead-free precision work, ensure your station temperature is set appropriately for the alloy being used (typically 330–370°C for SAC305 at fine-pitch).
