I bought these tips to insert threaded brass fittings into my 3D printing projects. When purchasing these things, it can be difficult to know for sure if they are compatible with your instruments. And the information sellers provide isn't always enough to draw any real conclusions. I saw in the description here that the hole diameter in the tip is 5/32" (4mm). But if I didn't miss it, I didn't see the depth. I bought it anyway and hoped for the best .I realized the depth wasn't enough to work with my Milwaukee soldering iron.My first thought was to drill deep or make a hole where I didn't want it.Instead I figured I'd find something to work around to fill the gap... And I found the perfect solution. In the same order with these bits/eyelets I also bought a set of brass inserts. And sure enough, one of these was perfect for what I was looking for. I just got it put one on the ceramic rod and then the tip considered here and viola I have included 12 photos to show exactly what I did, for those of you who don't have a Milwaukee soldering iron I should have enough information , so that S You can find your own solution if you encounter the same problem. Milwaukee Ceramic Rod (21.08mm) Diameter: 19/128" (3.8mm) Milwaukee Ceramic Stem Length: 31/32" (24.56mm) Photos Included1. Milwaukee soldering iron 2. Milwaukee soldering iron with sleeve removed to reveal ceramic rod.3. Brass tip (under revision).4. The threaded brass insert that saved the day.5. Brass tip (pending) with fully seated ceramic shaft. It does not touch the heat source.6. Installing the insert onto the ceramic rod.7. Assembling the insert on the ceramic rod (continued) .8. Brass insert next to the heating source.9. Placement of the brass tip (visible) on the ceramic rod.10. Brass tip (under revision) in place, opposite brass insert.11. The Milwaukee bushing slides onto the assembly.12. The Milwaukee sleeve is tight and ready to go. I tested it and it works very well. And if you don't already have one, this Milwaukee soldering iron is damn good! It's of the M12 platform and as you can see in the first photo I bought a non-Milwaukee battery (Revain too) for a lot less than the OEM and it works very well too. I hope there is enough information for those who want to buy these tips. Have a wonderful day!
