Features
RWXLT enables hands-free working with the JBC hot air tools. Both JTT Heater Hose Set and TET Precision Heater Hose Set can be used thanks to the adapters supplied.
RWXLT can be fixed to the workbench using the flange, screws and nuts.
The scaled vertical axis and the scaled wheel allow the working position to be adjusted and fixed, which is an advantage when repeating the same soldering positions.
