Amazon.com Product Description
The Weller WES51 Analog Soldering Station, with included soldering pencil, stand, and sponge, is the perfect choice for a variety of soldering applications, including industrial manufacturing, rework, repairs, and more. The comfortable foam-grip pencil and variable temperature controls give you complete command of your work for precise results. Plus, with a non-burnable silicone rubber cord, ESD safety, and automatic shut-off technology, the WES51 is safe enough to use in a continuous production environment.


The WES51's heater and sensor combination offers quick heat-up times and temperature recovery for highly efficient soldering.View larger.
The Weller WES51 Analog Soldering Station features:
  • An included power unit, soldering pencil, stand, and sponge
  • A durable design ideal for industrial manufacturing applications
  • Temperature lock-out that prevents excessive temperatures
  • An automatic sleep-mode that turns off soldering station after 99 minutes of inactivity
  • Adjustable temperature controls; quick heat-up and recovery times

Electronic Temperature Control for Precise Performance
No matter what your soldering job is, the WES51's electronic control system lets you set the temperature you need to get the job done right. The soldering temperature is adjustable from 350 to 850 degrees Fahrenheit and is accurately measured to within nine degrees. And the WES51's innovative built-in heater and sensor combination offers quick heat-up times and temperature recovery for better heat control over the course of your job.

The WES51's wireless temperature lockout prevents you from raising the temperature beyond what is recommended for a specific workpiece, board, or component. This eliminates the possibility of damaging components by accidentally setting the temperature too high for the job.

Comfortable, Easy-to-Use Soldering Pencil
The kit's included PES51 Soldering Pencil features a durable Nichrome-wound stainless steel heating element for long life and quick response time. Stainless steel will not corrode at high temperatures, meaning you can use this durable pencil for a long time to come. An added bonus, the PES51 Soldering Pencil is compatible with Weller ET series tips.

The PES51 also features a non-burning silicone rubber cord, a lightweight handle made from high-impact ESD (electro-static discharge) plastic, and a foam sleeve that allows for continuous use without fatigue or heat discomfort.


Wireless temperature lockout enhances your work's precision.
Innovative Features for Long-Term, Safe Use
The WES51 Soldering Station meets Weller's high standards for quality and safety. The station will automatically shut off power to the PES51 Soldering Pencil after 99 minutes of inactivity, which helps to conserve electricity and extends the tip life. Additionally, the easy-to-understand LED (light-emitting diode) lets you know what mode the WES51 is in, so you can easily see if the temperature is locked or unlocked and whether or not the unit is turned on.

The Weller WES51 Soldering station is UL/CUL listed, which means that it meets or exceeds independent safety standards. Furthermore, the PES51 Soldering Pencil is designed to be used in electrostatic-free workstations, and, for added safety, it is completely free of stored static charges. The WES51 Soldering Station is backed by a one-year warranty.

5 out of 5 stars A fine piece of gear...   November 19, 2009
R. Buchanan (Tuttletown, CA USA)
A fine piece of gear... not many frills, but a solid soldering station. How long have Weller products been around? They must be doing something right.


4 out of 5 stars Great Iron   November 10, 2009
PRKB (IN, USA)
This iron was an upgrade for me from a cheap (~$15) budget soldering iron. The difference is incredible, the warm up time is very quick and it holds a steady temperature. I found the controls easy to use and the on-off switch is a huge plus over having to remember to unplug the cord on the budget iron. So far I've used it mainly for placing components in pcb's and its worked well. Another attraction for me is the wide range of tips available from Weller and their great reputation. I see this iron as an investment and a product I'll be using for a long time, highly recommend.


5 out of 5 stars Great Sodering Station   November 4, 2009

I am a Biomedical Engineering Technician ( I fix hospital equipment ) and this is the soldering iron I use at work. I like it so much that I bought one for home too. You won't beat the price listed here on Amazon anywhere either... trust me I looked!


5 out of 5 stars It works.   November 2, 2009
R. Newton (Iowa)
Soldering without destroying on modern circuit boards is hard to do. This soldering station allows you to look like a pro.


5 out of 5 stars Weller is the best   October 15, 2009
Thomas Baraniak (Northfield, MN)
Weller makes the best soldering equipment and the WES51 is a good example. Low cost and high quality make this a good choice for hobbyist or professional. I've used Weller for decades and will choose no other.
