This is a replacement heating element for our 30W soldering iron. This heating element is very easy to install - it requires only a screwdriver. Only compatible with the 30W soldering iron listed below.
If it requires power, you need to know how much, what all the pins do, and how to hook it up. You may need to reference datasheets, schematics, and know the ins and outs of electronics.
Skill Level: Rookie - You may be required to know a bit more about the component, such as orientation, or how to hook it up, in addition to power requirements. You will need to understand polarized components.

The description is incorrect. You do not need just a screw driver. There is a third wire (green) that goes to ground that is mounted to the heating element of the soldering iron that i have been unable to detach from the original iron/element.
I bought one of these irons with replacement tips and element probably around the time you wrote this comment, just now getting around to replacing the element. Don't exactly have a way to make rivots at home so it was an annoying thing to find out.
Hi! Can you use this as a standalone heat source? What is the ideal voltage for creating my own circuit with it?
If you are still wandering. Yes you can use it as a stand alone heat source. And it is designed to work on 110V. Hope that helped.
