Wasp/Spec 12v Soldering Iron Tip
 
Hi anyone,

does anybody remember Wasp racing/Spec 12v Soldering Iron's?

Did anybody take over them or make anything similar, as I'm after a new Tip.

Hopefully I'll hear from someone.

Hi Kane

I remember Wasp Racing well. Terry Sadler and his family were such amazing people, they ran surrey radio control car club..

I don't believe anybody took over sadly.

Best Wishes
Stu

I would like a new tip for mine as well so could you please send me his details

It's a shame someone did not have the money and time to reintroduced them to rc market

Conrad 11-08-2015 05:14 PM

Same here, after many years of service there is now a sizable hole in the end of the tip. If you could message me those details as well Mark that would be ace ;)

If someone has an original tip I could use to take dimensions from I could make some up.

D20MCK 18-08-2015 07:03 PM

I probably could do

mark christopher 19-08-2015 09:27 PM

To the guys who may have contacted wasp, the guy is in hospital at the moment, so his son will help out when sorted.

Spec racing when i got mine only had a couple left several years back so wonder if the molds or company info is available so these superb irons can still be made available to all. Pmd you with spec racing details.
