New Metcal HCT2-120
Digital Hot Air Pencil
The new HCT2-120 Hot Air Pencil is the latest addition
to Metcal’s offering of convection rework tools. This
digital handheld convection tool is ideally suited for
applications, which use smaller components and
integrated circuits.
As component miniaturization continues, the ergonomics
of a pencil allow a user more freedom to access and
rework components on the board without affecting
adjacent parts.
