what are the best heavy duty soldering guns

What type of projects? If you're doing basic electronics/repairs this iron would be fine. For larger projects you might want one with a station and variable temps. I don't do much more than electronic project kits. This iron works fine for that.

Hot glue guns are very good for certain things. If you want a heavy duty, permanent bond like for furniture I would say go with a better bonding agent like a high quality wood glue or gorilla glue. For lighter projects hot glue is great.

I think these tips are only for Elenco-brand soldering irons. I you want to use these tips, Elenco has a nice solder station on Amazon for $35. Here is the link: Elenco SL5K40 Solder Station Kit with 40-watt Iron

I'm assuming that "SMG" is the U.K. version of the Chinese B series air gun's, ,,,so, Unless it's "tuned" beyond your 12 ft/lb legal limit, They're too heavy, and would most likely damage your mainspring before you finished the tin. If you want to stay in the JSB line, I suggest JSB Exact "Jumbo" RS @ 13.43gr,. They should provide you with great accuracy, and a decent muzzle velocity, Hope this helps. Cheer's, Andy.

It's LED so you really can't unless you want to break the soldering gun out and solder new ones in. I don't believe it was made to replace.

I used the magpul cantilever and it works great. Really solid and takes abuse.http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00B7NECNK?pc_redir=1409500481&robot;_redir=1

To be honest, I would never us B&D for heady duty jobs. They're pretty much the bottom of the line as far as quality and reliability. Look for Dewalt, Ryobi(that's what I use) or Skil. Home Depot usually has one of them on sale. hope this helps. Charlie

This heat gun is NOT for soldering or de-soldering. This is a heat gun. It would be better used to heat components to see if they were heat sensitive, or to use the blower setting to see if they would react to being cooled. Actually the best use and I sense the gun was designed for, was as a heat gun, is to heat shrink tubing...It has two temperature settings and really is able to point the heat only where you want it to be used.

The industrial Weller's heats up rapidly; 3-4 seconds and ready to apply to your work. Best soldering gun I've owned in 50 years.

This is an excellent soldering iron for the money, and will last a hobbyist a life time. You won't believe how much easier it is to solder with a quality gun, and the damp sponge to wipe the tip is a significant aid in forming a clean joint.

I had to solder them. I had to solder them. Just takes a minute if you have the gun and solder.

This one is better for different types of solder. You can change the temperature, it's fast to heat and it stays at the temp you use last. Just don't forget about the other tips. They're about $15 for a genuine set. I use this brand to fix desktop towers.

I've had issue with it getting hot enough. I just got some other tips to try to see if they will work better. I know a soldering gun does get hotter.

I've never tried, but probably not. For a dual-purpose gun that is used for electrical work as well as structural soldering, that would not be a particularly strong selling point. You are probably looking for welding or brazing tools, not soldering guns, if you want to actually melt wiring.

I do not know where the soldering gun was made. But it looks just like my old gun that was made in the USA. Perhaps it doesn't matter where it was made. It is a quality product.

I'm assuming that by "solder material" you're referring to solder wire. Any "60-40 Rosin Core" solder should work fine. I would use size .060" or for the real small stuff I would probably go for the .030" stuff. Here is a couple of links that you may want to look at: http://www.amazon.com/Alpha-AT-31604-60-40-Solder-Ounces/dp/B00030AP48/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1369338542&sr=8-1&keywords=solder http://www.amazon.com/Kester-Pocket-Pack-Solder-0-031/dp/B00068IJNQ/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1369338542&sr=8-3&keywords=solder I hope this answers your question, if not ask again.

Something like the Weller SP-175 or larger. It is an iron, not a gun, and this is the only type of soldering equipment designed for continuous use. Certainly not as convenient as a gun but it is good for a 24/7 duty cycle. The only other option I see if to have several of these plugged in and waiting to go and rotate them in and out.
