Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the T Series and M Series Thermaltronics tweezer cartridges?
The T Series (including the T70TZ010B) is designed for the SHP-TTZ handpiece and is compatible with TMT-5000S-1 and TMT-5000S-2 stations operating in the 700 Series temperature range. The M Series (such as the M80TZ010B) uses the SHP-MTZ handpiece and is compatible with TMT-9000S-1, TMT-9000S-2, MX-500, MX-5000, and MX-5200 stations in the 800 Series range. Always match the cartridge series to your specific station model — they are not interchangeable.
What is the lead time for this item?
The T70TZ010B carries a 3–4 week lead time as a special-order cartridge. Contact MTE Solutions at the time of order to confirm current availability and estimated ship date if your project timeline is critical.
What tip size should I choose for SMD rework?
The 1.00mm chisel tip is well-suited for mid-size SMD components such as 0402–0805 chip resistors and capacitors, SOT-23 transistors, and similar packages where a narrow chisel provides good heat transfer without bridging adjacent pads. For finer pitch work, a narrower tip may be more appropriate; for larger components such as SOICs, a wider chisel transfers heat more efficiently.
Are Thermaltronics tweezer cartridges sold as a pair?
Yes — tweezer cartridges are sold as a matched pair (two cartridges) to ensure both tips of the tweezer handpiece are replaced simultaneously, maintaining balanced heat transfer and tip geometry. Replacing only one tip can result in uneven heating and poor component pickup.
