Pros: Copper tips look good. Cons: I used this tip once and soldered about 25 pins in an 8-10 minute session. Before use I tinned the tip with wire wrapped around it, heated it to 400°C, let the solder dissolve and then cleaned it with copper wool. As you can see, this session resulted in a tip funnel. The upside is I have 7 more tips to work with which at this speed adds up to around 90 minutes soldering time for the whole set. Would NOT buy them again.
