Hakko 611-2 Dual Solder Reel Stand, Black

Works great to hold solder securely and makes work area more efficient. It has a very heavy base and sturdy construction. Currently have two full rolls of 1 lb 60/40 solder in it for a total of 2 lbs. Use it with .020 and .031 inch diameter solder regularly. Sometimes use .015 in it. Able to pull all three diameters of solder without solder breaking off. The axles roll smoothly and easily in stand with a full roll. Use Kester solder, so those reviews with solder breaking off when pulling might be using cheaper grades of solder instead of a good quality solder. Cant blame stand for cheap alloyed solder. Stand makes storing and retrieving solder easy, less clutter on bench, allows 2 different diameters of solder or alloys to be accessed fast, easy to swap out spools if needed. Would have like to have had this years ago defiently a worthwhile buy.

This is a well made high quality dispenser. Two spools allows two techs or two different size solder gauges to be dispensed. It is delivered disassembled in a flat pack with all parts indivually bagged to prevent shipping scratches and can be assembled in about 5 minutes. It has heavy duty walls .094 thick and base .125 thick, powder-coated steel. Full wrap-around rubber non-marring base locks on to the steel base and has stainless spring steel guides, the lower one can be fitted on the opposite side for two tech usage. Also has a grounding screw on the base for an ESD ground wire. The top carry handle is nicely chromed and folds. The spool axles are heavy duty ribbed ABS plastic and designed to prevent popping out but also easy to change spools, with .094 maximum side to side play.

A simple device that assembles easily and does precisely what its designed to do.

Really helpful in keeping the work bench tidy! The stand is very solid and the base is heavy enough that it all stays put on the bench when pulling the solder out. It holds pretty much any diameter reel and very easy to switch out if you need to. The fact that it holds two reels is why I went for this one as opposed to the single one. I use two different gauge solder on my projects and this keeps both in good reach.

This is a top quality solder reel that holds two reels at once. The solder can feed from either side of the reel an the wire guide for each holds the solder tail in place. I have very fine SMD solder on one reel and wider general purpose solder on the other. Takes up less bench space and means I can get what i need faster. The product itself is extremely thick steel, nicely painted and with a rubber boot on the bottom for grip. It stays exactly where you put it. The handle is strong and well made so its easy to move around when you need to. It can be ESD safe if required with pre-drilled holes for earth strap. As solder reels go this is about as good as its possible to get

Great rack for multiple spools of solder. Very well made. Parts are machined to fit together well and they do. Assembly is a snap. Heavy base even has a screw for grounding the thing. What else can I say, they thought of it all.

Works as expected.

Excellent

Weighted base will not tip. No regrets here.

Super high quality/sturdy. Really impressed actually. Shouldnt tip over even though it has the stacked design. Much nicer then the Weller SM1 Solder-Mate I was using before.
